They weren’t cowboys, they were sheep herders.

Sadly, Brokeback Mountain ruined even that for me. Now Cowboy just makes me feel uncomfortable, and vaguely uneasy about all-male camping trips. Now the word "Cowboy" just means bad football.

I didn’t see the film but I heard that the supposed cowboys in bareback mountain did something with sheep, not cows or horses
They weren’t cowboys

I remember 50 years ago on a road trip that I was making through Wyoming, out in the middle of nowhere, I decided to stop get gas, etc. As I went into a small general store I noticed a group of small Mexican looking (smelly) guys hanging around outside.
Someone told me that they were cowboys and when I asked why they were all so small, I was told that the ranchers hire the smallest because their weight is easier on the trail horses they ride that are owned by the ranchers.
My image of cowboys changed. They are small, wiry and with dark complections.

In one sentence she destroys her credibility if anyone cares to pay attention to it: “But the image what the word cowboy means off the top of almost everybodys head in the U.S. is the white, heterosexual male.”
Right there she states her bias blatantly, but glosses over it by stating “hey, everyone or at least almost everyone (the neanderthals that they are) thinks this way” She presumes to speak for the bulk of the population while overtly stating there is something wrong with normalization of normal behavior while championing the normalization of abhorrent behavior.
Arrogance mixed with stupidity - she’d make the perfect middle manager.

She's probably had a hard time attracting men, hence her disdain for them.

1/5th of all cowboys during the post Civil War period were estimated to be Black - and a good number more Latino.
Hey minorities, if you want to forget your own history - fine with me.

I don’t think “white” or “heterosexual”, when I think of cowboys.....I just think “cowboy.”
Who is the racist here?
