SO....What should they be called ? A "cowperson", a "cowpoke"....The gender changes with the person represented, if a girl, she becomes a "cowgirl".

Like the song says..."momma don't let your babies grow up to be cowboys//cowpeople//.....forget it ! !

“If you’re not a white person and especially if you’re an Indian, it would make you feel out of place - it wouldn’t make you feel too good about yourself,” he said...……..ASSHOLES....ALL OF THEM...
