Show her some FTM documentaries and transition videos on YouTube, so she can better understand it. Perhaps see a gender therapist with her. Find an FTM group that helps too. I personally think it's kind of harsh that she calls you a "dyke".. But just stay positive. Get your haircut, buy some guy clothes, come out to your friends...then see if you truly like to feel like a boy..if so, you can proceed further by taking hormones. If you don't like it, you can simply go back to being a girl.
You can also be gender fluid.
Acting girly doesn't make you any less of a boy. Those are societies gender norms. You can choose if you want them to apply to you or not. I've met plenty of "girly" guys.
that actually made me feel a lot better, thank you. I think I might show her a video / documentary just to see what she thinks, but I probably wont tell her any time soon, just because I want to make absolute certain that this is what i want.
