Nope – too smelly.

It would be more likely than a pirate, but odds are against my taking a chance and loving a cowboy. They go weeks and weeks without a shower, theiu’re only truly dedicated to their horse, and there is always a strong chance they will end up on the wrong side of a gun.

I have come to realize that the stress of sustaining a relationship is plenty for me without having to worry about a pillaging or range riding spouse.

Nah, not my cup of tea.

A cow girl is another matter.

Why is it a chance? What’s the risk? A cowboy is no different, profession-wise, from any other traditionally male occupations.

I fail to see why this is even a concern. A cowboy is someone who travels a lot, has a potentially dangerous job, likely sweats a lot, and has specialized equipment and skills. And there is a certain amount of physical strain and activity in the job.

The same can be said for jobs like electrical lineman, plumber, lawn maintenance people. and so on.

No, but I would love his horse.

Mmm, rodeo cowboys are sexy. I may not love them for long, but as the saying goes “Save a horse, ride a cowboy.”

My heroes have always been cowboys!

What chance?

Well…since I was a hippie cowgirl forever, yes, but…they would have to be a bohemian cowboy not a redneck cowboy. uh oh…am I in trouble for using the Redneck label? lol
I had horses on and off since I was a kid and while horse savvy, my trail rides involved saddle bags packed with wine, cheese, hummus dip, fruit, french bread and a little herbal essence on the trail. lol
Riding in shorts with my Ariats, pigtails blowin’ in the wind and nude swimming with my horse.

Bohemian cowgirls do it best!
Dig these boots!

A cowboy with a college degree who showers daily? Nooooo problem! And yes; they’re out there by the hundreds. Oh; and no chewing tobacco permitted.

A cowboy could be a male minor with an udder, in which case I’d love to meet his mudder! ;-p

Are we talking John Marston, or Brokeback Mountain?

Reading @Coloma‘s post I just want to spend sometime roped like a little doggie, whoopee-ti-yi-yo!

I have a real soft spot for cowboys. I would much rather have a cowboy than, say, a banker. In our family, the men are men and the women are women, and none of the guys have desk jobs. My other preference would be a military man. Oh yeah!
