Bohannon gave her a look that said 'bullshit' so he didn't actually have to say the word. "I worked on the railroad for a good bit, I picked up a good many things that weighed at least thrice what you do." And he wasn't trying to flatter her, he was simply speaking the truth.
He carried her, without problem, into the bedroom. "Well, I'll be honest, it was a first. I don't mind accommodating your tastes. I just know that most women that I was with would have wrung my neck if I tried any of that with them." So it was a nice change.
