Well, it's not exactly genuinely historical that women wore culottes and rode astride in the Old West. In the Victorian period, it was taboo for women to ride that way. In Europe, some women began to wear them, but they were doing it in protest of the taboo against women showing any of their limbs as part of the feminist movement of the time. In the Old West, Indian women did ride this way, but a white woman doing it would have been a terrible sight, a double taboo, to be riding like a man and "like a squ@w." I don't know of any case of a woman outlaw riding along with The Wild Bunch, or The Dalton Gang, or The James/Younger Gang, or accompanying a posse, except in a film like the famous "Ox Bow Incident." and she carried a rifle. Six-gun-toting cowgirls/gunfighters is a Hollywood invention grafted onto Annie Oakley, who never shot a gun from a saddle in her performances. I found three or four photos of her riding a horse in the Wild West shows, one rearing, but she was riding side saddle in every one of them. I found one period cartoon of her shooting a rifle from a horse, but it depicts her only from the waist up, but I don't know what year it's from. Of course, people are going to do what they want, and they will always rationalize it, but I think there should be an acknowledgment of factual history, not a modification of it, to make something genuine that is not.
