Default blind stealer - best way to act

The SB was consantly re-raising me when I was BB. Felt like I needed to make a stand sooner or later. Thoughts on this hand please

Paradise Poker 3/6 Hold'em (5 handed) converter

Preflop: Hero is BB with 6[img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img], K[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img].
<font color="#666666">3 folds</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB raises</font>, Hero calls.

Flop: (4 SB) 3[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img], 6[img]/images/graemlins/diamond.gif[/img], 9[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, <font color="#CC3333">Hero raises</font>, <font color="#CC3333">SB 3-bets</font>, Hero calls.

Turn: (5 BB) T[img]/images/graemlins/spade.gif[/img] <font color="#0000FF">(2 players)</font>
<font color="#CC3333">SB bets</font>, Hero folds.

Final Pot: 6 BB

You've got mid pair, 2nd kicker. I'd call this down. He could easily be 3-betting this flop with worse pairs, and draws, especially if he's been noticing that you give up when shown aggression.

3 bet preflop. Seriously. Sounds like you are ahead of his range and you have position.

I'd probably see the showdown here.

you have to show this down, unless this is against a maniac, why raise and get a worse hand to fold?
