As I read it, a tight player made the raise, the lady called on the button and we are in the blinds.
So if the initial raiser has AK, KQ, etc. he is in a tight spot when led into with the lady behind him. He might call, but then he will often play passively.
Unknown MAW on button can have all broadways, lots of SCs. All PPs bellow AA and KK (and sometimes AA and KK).
Basically, I think we are just making a protection bet OTF. I know that this should rarely be our primary reason for betting, however I think this is an instance where it is fine, particularly since these are probably not players who are likely to abuse us for doing it.
We aren't so ahead of a tight players range that we should be protecting a pair of sixes. I think we are actually not in great shape vs these two ranges.

Not only that there's a rec player on button and rec players aren't known for folding. And they both have position. If they checked to you I can get behind protection, at least then u have more information to go on.
At least bet bigger and make broadways uncomfortable. I really hate betting half pot on the flop, it is the worst way to play the hand imo. No way to make money off the hand, should just c/r or c/f.
