It makes a difference to me.
They are NOT cowboys.
They are sheep herders. Shepherds.
They are sheepboys.
And they aren't gay, they're bisexual shepherds.
Proof: Their flock has both rams and ewes.
You are hung up on semantics. It is still a story about two horny guys out in the boondocks who react to a close encounter of the homo kind. That is not love. That is just the only kind of sex available to them at the time. It happens in situations where men (or women) have no access to the opposite sex. Examples are prisoners, remote job sites, etc. This movie is simply pushing the gay agenda by using the "love card" to make the characters seem noble. The entertainment industry thinks it is wonderful and are falling all over themselves to hype it. I have no doubt it will be an Academy Award winner. Just remember who votes on those awards. It is not the public who generally rejects the theme of this piece of junk. Cowboys or sheperds argument is meaningless.
They're from where the men are men and the sheep are nervous.
