He didn’t stand up to her because he is a Texas GENTLEMAN. I guess he assumed that she was a lady and was shocked to find out that she was not. It’s a southern thing - men who were raised as gentlemen are still protective of ladies.
Oh, yeah? You mean like all the Texan freepers who post the most hideous photos of the woman and denigrate her in the most disgusting way!? Don’t make me laugh.
He didn’t challenge her because he didn’t know what hit him.
Now, she’s not a lady, folks!
You Perry people are ridiculous.
