    Owning a dog is the intersection between thinking dogs are the best, and actually having the time, energy and headspace to look after one.

    If dogs looked after themselves like cats do, I’d be inclined. But then they wouldn’t be dogs, I suppose.

      Dogs are so loving and in my case have always been obedient, but the first two years they behave like a dinosaur on meth. And then cats are so calm but they just ignore me except for when they want food.

      I like my dog’s energy because she motivates me to move at least a little bit each day. Of course I’m not gonna get a husky because no amount of motivation would let me keep up with them, but a good energy match in a dog is heaven to me.

      I like cats too, but I feel like I just don’t “get” them as intuitively.

        Huskies are weird because while they require a ton of interaction, during the time in between they act very catlike and just kinda fuck off and do their own thing.

    Straight man (cis) here. I prefer cats because having a dog is like having a stupid, stubborn kid that shits everywhere and screams constantly. Doesn’t even come with the benefit of being able to witness their beautiful, growing mind. They’re just dumb and annoying forever.

    I expect this to be my most disliked comment lol

    I think it depends on your stance towards authoritarianism. Dogs follow commands, cats do not.

    What happened to white women fuckin’ their dogs?

    That used to be a thing among that list, so you’d think they end up on the “prefers dogs” part.

        I didn’t make that up, for a long time i saw loads of claims and insinuationz that all white women fuck their dogs.

        Not me who thinks that, but those chronically online, disconnected from the real world people did.

            I just assumed since this is 4chan shit, the breeding ground of disconnected and chronically online mentally unstable people ya’ll would recognize it as it’s you where it comes from.

            But apparently not, so i’m gone. I’m not one of you even though you’re assuming i am.
