Where in that did it say that " apparently it is some sort of almost
sexual thing where they substitute the horse for a male"?

The fact is that a relationship with a horse is one of the biggest and
closest many people will have with an animal, due to the fact that
they are not just a pet. Safe riding and handling of your horse
depends on a mutually trusting relationship.
