What is a buckle bunny?

A buckle bunny is a term used in the rodeo community to describe women who are attracted to male rodeo athletes. These women are often depicted as being more interested in the lifestyle and status of dating a rodeo cowboy, rather than the cowboy himself. Buckle bunnies are known for their flashy western attire, often with rhinestones, fringe, and large belt buckles. They are typically seen at rodeo events, following the cowboys from competition to competition. Over time, the term "buckle bunny" has taken on a somewhat negative connotation, as it implies that these women are only interested in superficial aspects of the cowboy lifestyle.
