"Bovine" means ox or cow. Bovine stupidity is, therefore, worse than mere human stupidity; it is stupid as an ox or cow is stupid. A comparable expression is "dumb as an ox." Insults often compare people to animals: asinine (stupid as an ass); bird brain; snake; chicken; bull headed; elephant; hippo; vulture; rat; dog; mousy....and so on. The opening lines of Edwin Markham's 1899 poem, "The Man with a Hoe," uses the "dumb ox" image: The Man with a Hoe Bowed by the weight of centuries he leans
Upon his hoe and gazes on the ground,
The emptiness of ages in his face,
And on his back, the burden of the world.
Who made him dead to rapture and despair,
A thing that grieves not and that never hopes,
Stolid and stunned, a brother to the ox?
Who loosened and let down this brutal jaw?
Whose was the hand that slanted back this brow?
Whose breath blew out the light within this brain?
