    Both of these terms are applied to women, and generally speaking, although they are in the same vein as one another, "Cow" usually refers to an obnoxious woman, and "Mare" refers to a silly woman, although "mare" is more of a teasing name between family members, friends, etc. rather than an actual insult.
