That said, I do think it's pointless to argue about typings until you come to a consensus with the other person as to type images.
Edit: I would like to add that it is annoying to me when someone tries to constantly convince you they are a certain type. I don't think getting upset about a typing is necessarily revealing about the truth of that typing but I do find it super cringe when someone goes around trying to force a typing (about themselves) down yours' or everyone's throats. It's almost a form of gaslighting because they don't allow you to have your own impression of them as a person. I understand this is a very vulnerable topic where you are kind of "seen" for who you are (or at least many things about yourself are exposed/revealed), and if you feel too vulnerable, then don't expose yourself. It's an unhealthy loop to get into to try and constantly expose yourself type-wise and then try to get people to agree with that type, and get upset when they don't. It comes across as immature at best, and as gaslighting at its worse.
Another edit: People aeren't always benevolent in their intentions, especially online where assholes can hide behind some degree of anonymity. It's not your fault that people have ill intentions or want to gaslight you, Braingel, but you also don't need to convince them of anything. There is not necessarily anything wrong with being typed something you don't relate to, even if it is a bit upsetting. Maybe the person has a point and maybe they don't. Maybe this is condescending, but guard yourself and don't let every person on the internet into your mindspace.
