Complaints such these are the canary in the mineshaft. The school contains inferior intellects not qualified to even serve on the janitorial staff.

Very true. And the least intellectual, the more troublesome.

“Cowperson”

Beefperchild

That degenders it, but it’s still ageist, and vegans will be triggered.

“Cattle-friend” might do. Holding my breath on that one.

And boy is ageist/racist

By definition they cannot have a "black" cow-BOY

Although the Dallas Cowboys had "Cowboy Ray" for many years back in the eighties.

I'm a proud grad. I was raised in the city and never lived on a ranch, but I'm a Cowboy.

Not affiliated other than an observer but I knew this silliness would get outta hand when the Leftist bedwetters got Ole Miss Rebels and "The Colonel" removed because it supported racism and slavery.

They are now have the Ole Miss Black Bears.

Raaaa.. Raaaa.. Raaaa..

The girls objected and women’s teams all became Rams.

Malcontents can NEVER be satisfied, so why appease them(Trump knows this, instinctively)

A very nice intersectional deconstruction...

Well Done!

It all tumbled out spontaneously and abundantly from my fertile feminine brain.

In reality, the cowboy culture embraced anyone who was willing to work hard: white, black (from Buffalo Soldiers to freed slaves), Mexican nationals, Chinese, Protestant, Catholic, and even Jews (think Levi Strauss, and yes, there were plenty of Jewish cowboys — one even died in the Alamo)

Hard work discriminates against the lazy, change mascot to person in a lazyboy

Ooooops, sexist, again!

And how does “red right, returning” deconstruct, intersectionally?

It just burns my biscuits that these malcontented, irritable, grouchy, nitpicking, mean, dissatisfied, socially handicapped, empathy-deficient, loveless, humorless, man-shaming, repellent, aggravating, small-minded, perpetually-offended academic feminists claim to represent ALL WOMEN.

Liberals are the ultimate Puritans. They just know somewhere, someone is having fun and it is their job to stop that.

An important attribute of “Cowboy” is self-sufficient, independent compentency.

And the drive to git-er-done in the face of adversity.

No soy-boys need apply.

So call the women's teams "cowgirls."

Or rather, "cowwomen."

Next case ...

Last time I was in Montana, I learned that half the ranch hands today are women as the pay is low and a lot of women choose the job because they love the lifestyle. When I called one a "cowgirl," I was quickly corrected and told that even the girls preferred to be called "cowboys".
