Maybe you’re right Andrew.

I’ve had cats, but prefer them practically feral – I had a tough rescue cat as a kid (he used to take on the neighborhood dogs and was seen “riding” a couple of them down the street, claws-in)… My partner and I are both definitely dog people (like my mother-in-law was) and own a pit-bull mix.

Interestingly, my brother (whom a lot of people always thought was gay) – and his wife – have 2 cats they keep in their house… and have taken on caring for all the neighborhood strays. So maybe it’s got to do with being in touch with your feminine side after all… but maybe not with your sexual orientation.

Those are, after all, different things.

Dogs are pretty good; cats are better. Mine are friendly, and always glad to see me come home, but are also fine by themselves as long as there’s food, water, and a cat door.

I’m definitely a dog person. although I do find cats especially kittens to be adorable. When I was growing up I had a terrier, lab and something else we could never figure out mutt. She was the sweetest, gentlest of animals. Not a mean or angry bone in her body. She loved virtually everybody. She lived 16 years. I still miss her.

I love cats but my husband says I can’t have one. He says cats are a farm animal, their job is to keep the vermin down, not to be pets and he hates them. He’s a dog lover, I like a friendly dog but most of them are pretty aggressive and the barking drives me nuts as well they are just too much work with not using a litter box and needing exercise and what-not. Wanna go ride bikes?

We are neither dog nor cat owners and can’t really understand the impulse to do that.

I believe “Femina est: nihil feminitatis a se alienum putat” should read “Femina est: nihil feminATIS a se alienum putat”. That said, fascinating, and well-written, article.

Anecdotally, I have noticed that a lot of lesbian couples seem to own dogs…

I have owned cats in the past, but I definitely consider myself a dog person. My first dog, a beautiful Dalmatian, lived to be 16 years old. My current companion, a 5 yr old Weimaraner, is asleep on my feet as I type this.
