I am actually. In a lot of ways it’s quite appealing to imagine yourself living in much simpler times, but also a lot more dangerous and lawless times too. When I think of cowboys, I think specifically to the late 19th century coming up to the start of the 20th century, where you can see more and more evidence of technological advances and law encroaching into all parts of society. I think of people using horses as primary means of travel, more people carrying weapons as personal protection, and overall being more independent in their lives. The government wasn’t as much of a force of control and governing as it is today, so I think the term “wild west” is fitting for these times where many did what they want, lived how they wanted, etc.
Nothing wrong with great hats and outfits, horse riding et al. I love watching rodeo too. Those are some tough guys and the women who ride the barrels are amazing!
I have yet to buy a fancy pair of boots and another cowgirl hat. I do have one. The best of the culture is great.
I like the accents, the plaid shirts, and the supposed gentlemanness. Thats about it. Not big on the horseriding, boot wearing, gun-toating mamas boy type

u I enjoy western/cowboy movies but I would not want to live in that culture.
No. I find it offensive since the original idea of a cowboy came from Vaqueros (buckaroos like white people like to call them). I grew up with a vaquero dad who wore the charro boots and everything because he owned his own ranch and it was his thing. So, seeing white people wear it really annoys me because they just adopted our culture for no reason.
For a while I was into this. It was wayback after the Urban Cowboy movie came out. I always felt that I live by some kind of code of the west and I guess I still do.
I do enjoy early firearms.
I could do without the rest of it, most of which is highly exaggerated.
Ohh now I wanna get a cowgirl hat, just realized my old one got lost.
Now go ahead and ride a horse an lasso a calf... that's always fun.
I’m already in a horseshit town, that I want to leave!
Not a fan exactly, but I like it. It’s a nice classic genre. Also I love horses.
The "boys" look like they are right off "Broke Back Mountain".
u SASS is great, so is CMSA.
Ruh roh? Cowboy culture must be erased? It's racist!!!
Where’s the option for all of it?
Just the girls. The guns are kind of slow.
I ride horses and shoot guns.
The boys and the horses.
The coyboys and cowgirls. I'm a huge fan of that.
