I'm confused now. First you said it is an "attitude", and now you are saying it is a "fantasy". Which is it?

Being a Cowboy is an attitude. Looking at pictures is the fantasy

(I find it quite interesting that the first picture I posted, ironeagle said was a disrespect to all women, and the second picture I posted, he chimed in with such terms as "blubber" and "shamu" when describing his ex wife. I guess he doesn't feel that describing a woman that way isn't disrespectful.....)

Both of you are being ridiculous with this petty crap. Seriously what it the point?

You said here in this thread:

Quote: For 5 years I was abused in every way you could think of Physical Mentally and Sexually by a woman that was 5-2 and weighed over 450 lbs

Yet, you said in this thread:

Quote: How ever you cut it for someone 6-6 they are SMALL in that cab and I could easily reach across the cab of both models of trucks to the passenger windows.

*sigh*

I'm going to retire my stylus. I simply can't compete with that.

Twlight called simply I was raised NEVER to hit a woman regardless of HOW bad they desevre it in the case of my EX wife. My brothers and father all respect our wives not beat them into submisson and sometimes we are taken advantage of. My middle brother ex-Marine recon has been thru 2 abusive relationshiops were he was the victom of the abuse. Domestic Volience goes both ways as both the Abuser and Abusee people. My wife and I met at a mixer of Domestic Volience SURIVORS and that is how things got started with us. Just because I am a large man does not make me mister tough guy. There were many times I almost did loose my temper with the ex and throw her butt threw a wall wish I would have a few times now. However I knew she would have thrown me into jail so fast and nothing I would have said would have made the police believe me.

Well, I'm not making light of the abuse situation...I am all too familiar with it. And no one was advocating beating up on her. My point was that with a 16" height advantage and at 6'6", you're probably running 250ish or so, you didn't have to sit there an take it. And like it or not, you've got a reputation for tall story-telling, so expect people to raise an eyebrow or two. Believe me, you're going to have a really hard time living down the ping pong ball yarn.

Would that include talking about using a gun on her if you ever encountered her again? :roll:

Getting BACK to the topic....

I totally understand! Both sexes look at pictures to fantasize about perfection.....

A Cowboy knows there's no such thing! "Any port in a storm"..... IF it's raining!

But, when skies are blue.... only BEAUTY can compare!

And on overcast days..... we really don't CARE!

Yes I love the "ideal" of a cowboy. I guess because I've always felt I was born in the wrong Century. I would have been more at home in the time of the pioneers settling this country. Men and women had to work side by side, together, to survive. They didn't have time to agonize over their "relationship", it just was. They knew what needed to be done, and they just did it. The women of those days were as competent of running the ranch or farm as the men were. They had to be, because the men weren't always at home. Is that a "romanticized" notion of how it was? Probably.

My Grandfather was a Cowboy, raised in Oklahoma. At the age of 15 he left with Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show and travelled the country. My Grandmother, was a Prussian Immigrant who at the age of 18 was Missionary Nurse in Africa. They were both very capable, independent people who continued to have their own lives throughout their entire marriage. They had, what seemed to be, a perfect mix of respect, love and independence. Perfect example, my Grandfather designed and built the Church building that I went to most of my life. He drove Grandma to every Church meeting and on Satudays to clean the Church. But I never once saw him step inside the building, but he would be there waiting to take her home when church was over. Grandma did not allow alcohol or smoking in her house, so Grandpa kept his whiskey and cigars in his workshop in the basement. And that's where he went every night after supper. They didn't try to change each other or figure each other out, they were just two people who were married to each other. They took care of each other without ever suffocating each other.

I can only speak for myself, but that is what I have always looked for, a man who would let me be me, and love me anyway. In my mind that's always been a Cowboy.

Wouldn't that make him a "performer"??? I thought cowboys ran or worked on ranches.....

So you want a drinking, smoking, non-churchgoing guy who leaves you alone. :P

Reb .. its' clear that NO MATTER what we say .... others are going to take it and make it something it 'isn't' .....

I understand where your coming from with your grandparents and how you've always felt. ..... As a child myself I always read the books on the old west .... and always felt draw to that time in place and wish I lived back then. I'm with you all the way on this !

You should be quite proud of your grandparents ... it sounds like they had respect for each other and took care of one another. .... And if your grandfather wasn't a real cowboy ~ there's no way he could of spent time with Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show and be able to enlighten others on how the Real Cowboys lived and handled a horse and etc.. I'm sure he had to be Proud to show off his life style growing up. :wink:

Roses, there are a lot of good people in the world, and then there's the rest of them. :evil: I've found with BBR's, bullys and Trolls, it's best to just IGNORE them, they soon get tired of the game if they can't get a rise out of you.

Respect was definitely the cornerstone of their marriage! Respect for each other and for their marriage. And trust me, I know what a real Cowboy is! :wink:

I can't tell you anything about the current version of the Show, but back in the day Buffalo Bill was still running it, they were all Cowboys, and he didn't take just anyone.

I don't really care if anyone drinks, smokes, or goes to church or not, I'll respect their right to make those choices as long as they give me the same respect. And yes I see the smiley!
My mother asked me once, when I would get married again, my answer was when I found a man who would marry me and live somewhere else. He can come and visit when I have time. Haven't found him yet! Honestly I know how hard I am to live with and don't really want to do that to someone I care about. :lol:
