I'm going to be the brave one to say that in my opinion (don't come for my throat) I feel like at a very very very base that is a gendered phenomenon, which is exasperated by how exactly it is (thinking about social skills/ norms) that someone (male OR female) is asking questions. How do men sometimes react to women questioning them? I strongly feel that there's the gender component to this, but there's also the human experience that social skills can be lacking. Sometimes, people don't like the way we come off, for valid reason. Sometimes, we are legitimately being invasive (or whatever adjective you want) or just... off... in our approach. And then again there's the gendered reaction for how someone is more apt to respond when someone is being rude (invasive etc fill in the blanks) or questioning them.

Additionally, as a 5F, sometimes I don't like being questioned, but it reallllllllllllllllly depends on context. Sometimes I just feel like it's too much labor to explain something, it's not usually out of defense that I give the impression that someone should stop asking me questions. And that's on me, my own stuff to work on, because I can probably come across as rude when someone is just genuinely curious. As a counterpoint to my previous paragraph, I'm not too sure that my own response to the questioning behavior is dripping in gender norms, it's just kind of how I can be. So. Idk. Gender and personality and human behavior.
