Like a Rhinestone Cowboy... Yes you are correct, any westerns done from the 60's on, the heros are feminized sissies who would rather talk their way out of a situation then shoot their way out. John Ford must be turning in his grave!

I must protest this. In none of Clint Eastwood's westerns is he anything remotely like a sissy. Haven't you seen Fist full of dollars, Good the bad & the ugly, or The Outlaw Josey Wales?

Way off base. A short list as example: The Shootist (76)
Rooster Cogburn (75)
Cahill, US Marshall (73)
Train Robbers (73)
Cowboys (72)
Big Jake (72)
Rio Lobo (71)
Chisum (70)
The Undefeated (69)
True Grit (69)
War Wagon (67)
El Dorado (66)
Sons of Katey Elder (65)
McClintock (66)
and more

Of course, these are all 'Duke' film, so no sissy stuff to be had, no homo agenda, and they all made money.
