Found this question on an Instagram reel as dating advice for girls if they don’t know what to talk about and that men have a lot of opinions about this. Let’s see if she’s right.
I’m a man and don’t have strong opinions about this, so count this as one vote against it.
Lol I was thinking the same, neither sounded really appealing to me but it’s not like I’d start a fight over it.
People dress up as cowboys now. Go to your local Walmart.
Speaking of, why the fuck aren’t they shamed into the shadow realm like I would be if I dressed as a samurai while getting the bread and milk?
Anyway that’s my answer, Samurai.
Because cowboys unlike your weird understanding of what a cowboy “is,” actually still exist. Some of the people at your local Walmart are literally blue-color workers with the job title “cowboy.” Now why you would want those laborers banished to “the shadow realm” is obviously some kind of perverted understanding of class in american society that you need to work out for yourself. Hopefully you can understand that actual cowboys exist to today, but Samurais, since they are dependent on feudalism, cannot and do not exist any longer.
Cowboy, no contest.
Samurai’s lives belong to their masters. I couldn’t live that way.
Pirates live by killing and stealing. I couldn’t live that way.
That leaves cowboys. Certainly not the glorious and romantic life Hollywood makes it out to be, but generally honest work toward specific goals and freedom otherwise, which’d be fine.
Also you can be a “cowboy” today, right now.
Just throwing this out there, you can literally be a cowboy or a pirate today right now. The only barriers to entry are willingness and the minor physical ability they require. Samurai is unfortunately impossible.
