The word "equine" was first used in English in the late 1700s. The earliest known use of the word was in 1778, in the writings of G. L. Way.

We did vulpine of Friday, but not lupine, although that did come up in the discussion of vulpine.

Huh, I'd never guessed that. To me, it's all toothy smile and provocative, not necessarily in a bad way.

I'm thinking of the construction workers in large cities that like to whistle and make cat calls, as well as confronting attractive or minority groups  (eg LGBTQ) on the streets. 

I've come back to equine because, although I'm not Asian, I was born in the year of the horse and that seems like a good enough reason to wish everyone Happy Lunar New Year as we enter the Year of the Snake.
