Maybe udders on male cows are like human men growing breasts due to chemical imbalances or steroid use. Those boy-cows aren't gender-ambiguous, they're just on the juice!
It's my estimation that... every man ever got a statue made of him, was one kind of sumbitch or another.

an overblown libretto and a sumptuous score/ could never contain the contradictions I adore
Just... everything I read about that movie upsets me. Not only do the boy cows have udders, the movie is all about a father-son relationship, and apparently they make fun of girls cows! Who also have udders! This makes no sense! Give me carnivorous houses any day.

I'm pleased someone else shares my outrage.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
If they have udders, why are people here assuming they're male? Is it the voice work? Or are the characters put forth as male, somehow?
The characters are explicitly male cows. The central storyline is between a father and a son...cow. There are also female cows in the movie, one of whom is pregnant, and a love interest for the son. And there are also bulls.
The whole thing just makes my head explode with wrongness.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
There's no sense feeling 25% worse than usual, because someone's applied the label "migraine" to a symptom you were content to label "sinus headache."For me, I am glad to have read it though because I know how to deal with migraines. And I've had plenty of sinus headaches recently that have left me shaking and in tears and whining here. Now? I can use some of the migraine skills against them and see if that helps more.

I have a friend who's some lawyer thing (corporate counsel? Did I make that up?) at a media company, and she describes herself as never having practiced law.
heh. In house counsel is the best. There's a learning curve when you get there, then you basically do the same thing all of the time. if something big comes along, you call outside counsel.
