Might be worth it to point out I'm not the only one who questions Thor's chances in a fight of this sort ...

Hard fight...no mobility!!!
Originally posted by bluewaterriderDiana rips the adamantium door of the jail cell off its hinges, expertly bends it around Thor, and uses it to hold him helplessly immobile while he asks, disbelieving, how any woman from ANY world could do that to him.
Thor doesn't strike me as one who takes women all that seriously in a fight, either.
This episode concerning Tarene reads like something you might see in a 1940s comic, but seems completely in character for Thor ... at least from what I've read.
Besides this scene with Tarene, compare Thor in Secret Wars
("Mayhap woman -- when icicles adorn Surtur's fiery realm!"😉
[to Titania]
and Thor in Marvel Team Up #116
(Art thou mad, Spider-Man? To take arms against one so sweet, so fair so ...)
[paraphrased. Thor gets struck from behind by Valkyrie in the middle of the sentence, for the mistaken folly of trying to defend Valkyrie's "honor", not realizing she's been possessed, which is why Spider-Man was fighting her in the first place]
He doesn't seem to have changed much or learned from any mistakes in all this time. I don't seem him taking Diana seriously enough soon enough in the midst of an in-character fight to realistically win against her.
