Harness or saddle?

What do we use?

What's the difference?

Does it make a difference what it's called?

To me:

A harness is what we sit in.

A saddle is what we sit on.

Ask the horse if there's a difference

I like saddle, it sounds cool, a harness is what you put on little kids to keep them from running on ya ;) and i like being a cowboy, it's good to slide it on and say, "back in the saddle again!"

sounds weird when you say harness....

What if we combine the words like.... harddle, or..... sadness...... ok, maybe knot...

It is a work harness but I call it a saddle.

My first saddle had a batten seat and I remember seeing one of the first saddles with seperate leg loops (and I did not like it at first).
 
I call it a saddle until you put rated suspenders on it, at which point I call it a harness *shrugs* IDK why. I like "saddle" though, same way I've always called spikes "spurs". Saddle + spurs fits the cowboy motif....maybe it's just the Texas in me.
