reluctance to cook
reluctance to perform house work
reluctance to wear anything but boots
reluctance to work except in support of a horsephysical craving for contact with horses (may be an addiction).
Beware! If you come in contact with a female human infected by this substance, be prepared to talk about horses for hours on end.
