What it sounds like
Your personality is just as bad as your riding.
What it really means
“You’re arrogant and disrespectful toward women, and your poor horsemanship gives me another reason to think little of you.”
Said today
“You’re as bad a person as you are a rider.”
What was happening
Anthony has just described his requirements for a wife and spoken about women as breeding stock. Kate challenges his attitude, then adds a cutting jab at his riding as she ends the conversation.
