Blog 15 Cowboys

Ehrlich describes cowboys differently than the average stereotypes. Ehrlich describes cowboys as people who are tough on the outside, but compassionate inside. They have to be tough because they job is very hard, but they also have to be very compassionate to the animals, because they care about the animals. If an animal was in danger or hurt, the cowboy would do anything to help the animal. However cowboys have trouble communicating their emotions to women, because cowboys are so busy they barely see women. Ehrlich has a longing tone. She misses being with the cowboys, and really admires them. It helps convey her purpose of describing cowboys as better than the average male.  Because she admires them so much, it makes the audience admire them too.
