My relatives constantly bring up that I’m a girl now and even tried to make a girl name for me. Am I overreacting or is it valid for me to feel uncomfortable that she calls me a girl when I’m presenting as male at that time (I’m transfem)?
Post Body

Context - I’m transfeminine and I present as both male and female.

In this video call, I was presenting as male and my aunt constantly brings up about me being a girl — I never wanted to have that conversation because I know their toxic Asian conservative traits and it’s just NOT something I’m comfortable discussing with just anyone since I just came out a month ago.

I felt very uncomfortable and I changed the topic many times yet she just goes back to it. Why do they need to highlight it when I don’t want to talk about it?

Is it valid for me to feel uncomfortable? The conversation made me feel unease that I just don’t want to discuss being transfem to my relatives anymore :( some Asian people from older generations are still living in the older era so they lacked sensitivity on this matter. Just don’t know how to react and feel.
