Oedipus Trap - when you subconsciously know that finding out you were wrong about something, or made some huge mistake, would be incredibly psychologically devastating, you tend to build up psychological barriers around it and lash out at anyone that brushes up against that bubble.
Not much lashing out in this case, but you definitely see it in other AGPs when they get clocked. Brushing up against that “I’m not actually a woman, I’m a man in a dress living my life around a paraphilia.” thought.
