Too sensitive?

My wife and I are Christians.

I told my wife that I feel like she treats me too harshly, with a lack of patience, and just speaks to me without any care. I've asked her multiple times to treat me better, to speak to me more gently and patiently, and in a less harsh tone.

She replied that this is just her way, that I am "too sensitive," and that I need to stop acting like a woman, be a man, and stop being so fragile.

I got really upset with that response at the time because I don’t think that just because I'm a man, it means I can't be upset about being treated rudely.

But now I'm thinking... Am I being too sensitive? Should a man not care about these things?

Has any man here actually gone through something like this in real life, or have any thoughts about it? Any advice on how I could stop being this way, if that’s the case? I’m willing to improve.
