The American Wild West of the 1800s was a time and a place where men could be men, and women were largely expected to service them. Looking back, the modern male realizes that females are not meant to be subjugated into prostitution, verbally and physically abused, and, when recalcitrant, casually murdered. However, the ten-gallon dudes of yore had no idea that they should not dig their spurs into the flanks of a bawdy-house filly as though she were a bucking mare. Lessons in gender relations were hard learned for these he-men outlaws, taught with a vengeance by vixen gunslingers such as the pulchritudinous posse that serves jezebel justice in Ride Sweet Die Slow (2005).
