Was her comment appropriate?
So I spent the whole of last week snowboarding. Because I'm a person who just goes for things and doesn't think about the consequences, I decided to buy a helmet. I was practicing jumps and I intended to keep my head safe, because I'd already hurt it a few times.
I saw my friend at the end of the week, and she looked at my helmet and said ''God, you're such a pussy. Only amateurs wear helmets''
I personally thought that wanting to keep myself safe doesn't make me a ''pussy'' nor an amateur. Or am I just over-reacting?
What are your thoughts on this?

She hit a soft spot, and she probably didn't intend to. Forgive and forget, and if it happens again you can worry about it.

You should ask yourself what kind of person your friend is. (I mean in how she talks)
Just because she uses that language to you or her friends doesnt mean she is rude, she is probably just being "one of the guys" or trying it out.
Case in point: I hang out with a bunch of Aplha males. We are jerks, talk trash and have a good time. If you are in our circle and we like you, you are bound to get called things once in a while (but we expect you to come back with snappy answers too) When chicks do it, we dig it.
I may be wrong on this, but I'm just judging it by the circle of people I hang out with, we've lost many an associate by the way we kid.

Actually only amateurs DON'T wear helmets!
You won't see a pro snowboarder without a
helmet. So next time you tell your friend
that.
You are not a pussy at all. I have worked
in an emergency room, I can tell you from
experience that if a head injury doesn't
kill you, it can mess up your brain big
time. So don't go without the helmet.
Just laugh next time and tell your friend
you will hold his/her drool bucket for
them when they suffer a head injury.
