I think the bigger plot hole is that a Texan is dating a minority.
That was tongue in cheek, but that's how seriously I took your post.

I guess you've never been to Austin, interracial couples are VERY common.
Not all of Texas is redneck back-country, you ignoramus.
It's not too surprising that she's dating a minority. Girl from conservative Texas who moves out of the state. She was probably rebelling against her conservative parents.
shareExcept that not everyone and not all of Texas is conservative, and especially not conservative enough to care what race someone is. But keep sticking to your stupid stereotypes.
shareI think that was what I was saying right? An Ivy league educated girl who escapes Texas and goes to NYC is obviously going to be pretty liberal. If she was conservative, chances are that she would have stayed local to Texas.
shareBut to do that you were also saying that her parents, by default since they are from Texas are conservative and racist.
shareObviously, y'all have not been to San Antonio. The city normally votes Democrat. Julian Castro was the mayor here before he went to be head of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development under Obama. The city is very racially diverse, more so than many due to the military influence in the city. Before y'all start deriding a city, please know your facts.
Thank you,

She was born in Texas but they never said how long she lived here. All we know is that she went to Penn and then moved to NYC. However, her grandmother is in NYC and her sister or brother are also in the area, so it is highly possible/probable that she moved from San Antonio when she was young.
She told him she is from San Antonio. Not just born there.
shareSo you want to get into a semantics debate over something so minute? At this point you are just being a douche.
shareThe OP seems to be having trouble with the concept that you can be "from" somewhere and not have lived there for very long.
Maybe she moved away when she was 3 or 4 or 5 or any age from her early childhood. Honestly, I can't believe this is even a topic.
Seriously. And I really hate when morons call something that they don't understand/too dim to figure out a "plot hole".
shareI was just making a lighthearted joke, but I guess subtlety is lost on you. What are you, Aziz?
shareNo you weren't, you thought you were being a clever douche until no one agreed with you so now you are playing it off as a joke. Even if you were joking, it wasn't clever. It was just dumb.

Not just that, OP has trouble with concepts like not every single person from a/born in a particular area has to be exactly the same. OMG, a person from Texas doesn't adhere to every single Texan stereotype!!!
shareI'm from Texas and don't know what a honky tonk is. No one I know does.
shareI'd never heard the term before, I'm assuming it's because its kinda racist and outdated so people (young) don't use it.
shareI grew up in Texas and got away after collage. Honky Tonk was used as a put down for people that went to bars and drank and cut up.
This particular character may be a little too young to now that term. I don't think it is used as often any more.
We're going " honky tonking " = white trash out all night drinking. LOL
I've always heard that "honky tonk" refers to a particular type of country music (like the kind that was playing in the bar in Nashville when Dev and Rachel danced). It's not a racist term, at least not where I'm from (and I'm from West Texas).
shareA" honky" is an eastern European.It's a very racist term for immigrants dating back to the 1930's when a lot of Poles and Czechs and Hungarians (Honky) came by boat and worked as stevadores on the docks. The term "bohunk" mixes Bohemian origin and eastern European. I happen to be a proud bohunk also known as the daughter of the Great Austro-Hungarian Empire which stretched quite far until recently. Nothing in the slightest to be ashamed of. Not like the Slovenians and the Rumanians.Lol.The Country of Austria is first mentioned in 990. The town I was born in was established in 1010. It has 2 breweries, one established in 556 and 2 castles. One I lived in due to post war shortages. Don't consider me an immigrant. Think of me as visiting royalty.
