Cowboy Code of Ethics by Cheryl Wright
When I was working on my latest book today, I mentioned (in the story) about the cowboy code of ethics, and how one of the ethics was to treat women with respect and dignity.
This code dates back to the Wild West where times and cowboys could be pretty rough.
I did a bit of research after I’d finished writing, and did find several images that portray the cowboy code of ethics, but none of them validated my belief.
Due to copyright laws, I’m unable to post any of the images here, but I can however link to them. I found this one on Pinterest. Click here to see it.
The other thing I discovered, which surprised me, is there’s an official website for the Cowboy Code of Ethics, which I found fascinating.
On the right hand side of that site you will see the actual code of ethics. Nowhere does it mention treating women with respect. It made me think about how things get passed down over the years. It’s a bit like “Chinese Whispers” which we used to play as kids.
One person is given a message, which they have to whisper to the next person in line, who whispers to the next in line and so on. At the end of the line (usually at least six people), the message is relayed to everyone.
It is extremely rare for the interpretation to be the same as the original.
I believe that’s how the “cowboy’s creed” as it is also known, has been changed around, but it also seems to be somewhat open to interpretation.
Not sure about you, but I find this sort of thing intriguing. I guess that’s why I became a writer.

WHAT HAPPENED ON AMERICAN INDEPENDENCE DAY 1918?
AMERICAN DOUGHBOYS AND AUSSIE DIGGERS – CENTENARY
The Battle of Hamel – 4th July 1918.
Under the command of Australian General Sir John Monash, the Australians and Americans, (diggers and doughboys), fought side by side in France in the Battle of Hamel on 4th July 1918. In honour of the doughboys he was commanding, General Sir John Monash had chosen America’s Independence Day, as the date of the offensive.
Despite an agreement between The British commander-in-chief, Douglas Haig and America’s General John Pershing, that American forces were only to be used in defensive roles, Pershing let Monash have four companies of soldiers for the attack. Also, for the first time on a battlefield, tanks were used to bring up supplies behind the advancing troops. The battle was a spectacular success, and laid the foundation for future victories and the end of hostilities on the Western Front.
At 11a.m. on the 11th November, 1918, an Armistice was signed and the guns fell silent. The Great War had ended, but the repercussions for both our countries would be felt for years to come.
I have written four books set against a background of WW1.
DARING MASQUERADE
When Harriet Martin masquerades as a boy to help her shell-shocked brother in 1916, falling in love with their boss wasn’t part of the plan.
ALLISON’S WAR
In 1916, on the French battlefields, a dying soldier’s confession has the power to ruin the woman he loves.
A ROSE IN NO-MAN’S LAND
Nurse Amy Smithfield finds love on the French battlefields, but risks losing it in the slums of London’s East end.
LAUREN’S DILEMMA
Three men stole Lauren’s love, only one will keep it.
