The female bodybuilder dressed in the cowboy outfit sings "The man who shot Liberty Valance". What is the origin of this song? Is it a western? Country? Am I correct in thinking there is some feminist significance to it?

There is a 1962 movie, a western, by the name of "The man who shot Liberty Valance." It starred James Stewart, John wayne and Lee Marvin. Gene Pitney sang the song. ( The song was never in the movie)

Head over to IMDB.com to read some info about the movie.

About the feminist significance, no clue.
