Both. He doesn't find her attractive, but he needs to be extra to get the point across without Mrs. True getting involved and potentially using Everett as a blunt object against the offending woman.

Man's kept in place by a mix of love and acknowledging he's found the only person who can take him down.

My choice: Mrs. True is a jealous woman.

Not all married men wear them, varies with religion and culture. Source: sidewalk van preachers and long discussions with such.

I love onions. They're flaky, edible baseballs that make your lookin' spheres sad.

Sexist?! How would that be sexist?!

Do I need to kiss people that I don't want to now in order not to be sexist?

I really don't want to be that anti-woke guy, but you're making it hard for me.

Are we sure this isn't his real wife, and this isn't some kind of weird verbally abusive foreplay?
