B) there is a southern culture of honor

Explanation:

In social psychology, the term culture of honor refers to a culture in which members from this culture feel the need to protect their reputation by answering to insults or threats using violence.

There have been many cultures of honor throughout history: like the Wild West. In these cultures, there's a belief that there's no authority who will be in charge of protecting the people so they can take "justice" when it comes to their reputation into their own hands.

Currently, in the United States, the southern states have a culture of honor, thus, they tend to respond to insults more aggressively compared to men from the North.
