Let us take you on a ride through fandoms fit for equine nerds.

We all knew this one girl in elementary school who was obsessed with horses. Some kids loved dinosaurs, some were into baseball, and others really loved playing D&D together. But the horse girl? She was head over heels, it was her entire personality, she was a fanatic. You know that girl, you remember her now. And if you're reading these very lines on this very special page, you were probably her.

But don't worry, we're honestly not judging. On the contrary - we adore all the little horse girls out there. We are Geek Universe, after all - we love everyone who's taking part in any fandom. And let's be honest, horse girls are one of the most intense fandoms out there, starting way before their peers even know what a fandom is. Some kids might laugh at them, not understand, and be mean. But horse girls? They're awesome. They stay true to themselves, holding their love for horses dear, as intensely as it comes out.

Some of these girlies grew into true adult geeks, appreciating characters from many fandoms, but it doesn't mean their love for horses ever waned. But luckily for them, you, and us, many characters come with a steed companion to fangirl over. Here are a few of the best, so scroll through them and let your inner horse girly shine today!
