You have gone over and beyond to help her, which speaks to your character. Her comment speaks to hers.
I think the point (to me) is that she called him something that she seems to not believe that it was a derogatory term. Maybe the theory is that she should know. But expecting everyone, especially folks that are nearly 100, to know the social trends of the day, is likely not realistic.

And my statement is in no way any judgement on Vash. I understand him being bothered, and I think he should do what he feels he needs to do in this relationship.

It's just an unfortunate clash between folks from different times.
