      The saddle apparatus has a cock holster to prevent chafing.

          They swing them in sync with the opposing leg. Centaurs have four.

            Well said. Just about every good artist has to start as a bad artist.

                  Centaurs (and other *taur types. Looking at you, furries) are overall an incredibly dumb design. The more you think about them, the more they just _don't work._ I went from meh, to dislike, to hate for centaurs over the years.

                      This is just a random picture he made for the meme. He’s not trying to sell it and it doesn’t replace an actual artist. IMO that’s an accetable use of AI.

                        That's why I like my winged mythical creatures with really big wings. Sphinxes are bad, but still not as bad as centaurs, as Sphinxes don't have _an entire additional body_ attached to their body.

                          I'm a sci-fi guy. I can accept that whatever force is causing the unicorn to fly is one that I haven't measured or studied yet. Any sufficiently understood magic is indistinguishable from science.

                            There's no acceptable use for something that can only exist by violating the copyright terms for millions of artists.

                                For the pegasus, are they factoring in possibilities like having hollow bones like birds do to reduce weight? Granted, that would severely hamper their abilities to be a horse, but maybe they're not *supposed* to be beasts of burden?

                                  This is just another reminder how weird a centaur is as a concept. Vertebrates don't have more than 4 limbs. Land vertebrates mostly have 4 legs, but the structure of their forelegs is very similar to human arms and wrists. Bats have wings, but their wings are basically arms with a membrane of skin between the bones. Even a Naga (human / snake hybrid) makes more sense than a centaur. Also, think how unbalanced a centaur would be. Instead of a trunk that merely has to support a neck and a head, a centaur has to support a full half-human right at the front of its body. That would shift the centre of mass way forward, so most of the weight would be on the middle limbs. That would affect its ability to gallop, because in a gallop most of the running power of a horse comes from the back legs. If the back legs are almost completely unloaded because all the weight is at the front, the back legs wouldn't be able to push with much force. A more realistic centaur would have the trunk weight shifted backwards, so instead of having a human torso replacing its neck and head, it would be like a rider on a horse but without the rider's legs or the horse's head.

                                    I would be holding on to my dick and balls so they don't smack me in the asshole every gallop.

                                        A human torso’s weight would be almost inconsequential compared to a whole ass horse body, not to mention the human part has abs and shit and will be coordinating with the horse part, cause it’s all one creature. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a ridiculous creature, I just think it could theoretically work
