NOT cowboys, SHEEPHERDERS!
No self-respecting cowboy would herd sheep (either).

My dad was a real self-respecting cowboy and he did both.
And no one would have dared show him disrepect. They don't make men like that any more.

No self-respecting cowboy would herd sheep (either). BS - Myth.
The west was just as populated with sheepherders. It was part of ranch work, and any ranch hand that wanted work, worked with sheep when the job required it.
This myth of cowboy is just a glorified ranch hand.
As for Brokeback Mountain, well that POS homo movie just further explodes the myth of cowboy vs. sheepherder.
