Howdy, chaps

Yes, it might be hilarious to call it 'Bareback Mounting', but whilst Brokeback Mountainhas the tabloid press all a-flutter, the film isn’t as controversial as has been suggested, and simply follows in the strong tradition of gay westerns. You probably remember such titles as:

The Outed Josie Wales

Male Rider

The Legend of James the Jessie,

A Fistful of Dollies (and, of course, For a Few Dollies More)

True Girth,

Bitchfight at the OK Corral

‘Butch’ Cassidy and Just Who Does She Think SHE’S Kidding?,

and that all time classic...The Magnificent Steven.
