Could've sworn she was fine being female though, she's just mad that she's boxed into expected roles as a result of being female. And it may have only happened on the show, but I'm pretty sure she at least once, prior to everything going to shit, goes "I'm a girl!" to guys who mistake her for a boy. She pretends to be a boy out of necessity.

That said, I can see her as being either way once she joins The Faceless Men, considering what they do. People just tend to be put out that she gets labeled as trans simply because she's a tomboy. It's just more gender essentialism.

Just popping in to say you're remembering correctly. In the books too, in Arya's first scene with Syrio Forel, he calls her "boy" multiple times. She doesn't react the first two times, but the third time she objects.

It was the third time he had called her "boy." "I'm a girl," Arya objected.

Also, later when Yoren is talking to Ned after Arya tries to warn him about the plot she overheard:

"And this must be your son. He has your look."

"I'm a girl," she said, exasperated.

She definitely has some mixed reactions, though -- sometimes she doesn't mind/is neutral at being mistaken for a boy, and later embraces it/takes advantage of the mistake to avoid being recognized, and sometimes she protests.
