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.

All three - pirate against capitalism, cowboy against society, and samurai because their swords are awesome and they bathe.

A cowboy. I was born in the western US and spent some of my young life on a cattle ranch. It’s hard work and at the end of the day, there’s a sense of accomplishment.

Not interested in being a pirate, stealing isn’t my thing. I don’t like the idea of slicing and dicing people, so samurai wouldn’t work for me either.

Fictionally, a samurai. But for real, I guess cowboy is the most sane option…

Not even considering being a pirate makes me wonder what you were thinking about? Like being in a fictional world is most awesome thing that can happen to you ever. But also for real their life isn’t that bad as being scalped alive

My presumptions says that they don’t have great healthcare nor food… And in the fictional world, you’ll get hanged unless it’s something like One Piece (which would be cool I guess)

Cowboy - Pros: lowest chance of death, honest work for honest pay. Cons: hard work for low pay

Pirate - Does internet piracy count? I get seasick to easily to be the boat kind. Also the death.

Samurai - Maybe an Edo period samurai, when they were mostly bureaucrats.
