But that is the whole point, this has been going on since the 1800’s in this country. It’s not a feminista thing, it’s a culture. It’s Americana. I grew up around this culture, we have a rodeo in my county that’s been here for decades. I get the why’s and the what for’s of it.
Not every teenage girl rides a bull but teenage girls have done it for years. One can’t be a throwback to think this isn’t appropriate, because it’s been going on before my great-grandmother was born and done by countless teenage girls over the decades. I’m not going to presume to have the wisdom of an elder when my elders were doing this stuff. That’s my what I’m trying to say here.
I suppose theres good reasons for that that have nothing to do with sexism. And because I agree doesn't make me a bad guy. Thats my only point.
