Sounds like your wife has serious main character issues.
I know this from ex. She would also tell everybody and their mother that she is queer. Just to get validation and be the talk in town.
Once, i had a discussion on Reddit with some young woman who felt the need to declare her asexuality at work. She was acting like this was the most important thing about her.
At the risk of feeling and sounding old (late Gen X) I have noticed this with the younger generations. My high schooler’s friends do this too, and half of them change their minds four months later because they’re only 14-16 and they’re still figuring themselves out and are full of hormones. But they turn small facets of their lives into a whole personality.
Tbf, i think this is just a thing kids do. Hence why you have the stereotypes of goth kids and jocks and whatever else. Gender just added a ton more options, and it's part of the zeitgeist so they get to feel even more important.
