I thought FC just removed all visually male animals during the last update/hotfix/patch/patch/patch cycle? I know that two of the stallions in my horse collection joined the three mares so now have five ‘mares’ - mounts renamed accordingly
For boredom, did a test with 40+ horse placements to see if all mares and, yep, nary a stallion amongst them. I suspect that FC have indeed bowed to, and sanitised horses - besides, none of the other creatures are dimorphic.
I’ve been thinking much the same thing. What if the fix for elongated dongs on wight horses was related to flagging the horses different genders, so all horses are considered male now for the purpose of whether the goods are displayed or not.
The thing is, I’m not sure just how intentional it is because I’m pretty sure potions of endowment still only work on horses that are supposed to be male. I noticed this after throwing stacks of them I got out of a chest on separate occasions on two different horses. Simply put, they worked on one but not the other.
