I can't say I've had the exact same experience, but I did get picked on by a bunch of "friends" at a birthday party. Tried to play truth or dare and I was a really honest, open kid (mostly), so when it was my turn I said, "truth" and someone asked me if I'd ever kissed a girl, and I said, "no". They decided that I had to be lying so they asked me a different question, "have I ever had a crush on a girl" to which I also said, "no". They didn't believe that either, and one of them jokingly asked, "have you (me being AMAB) ever kissed a boy?" That was coming from a kid in a really conservative Christian family, and it caught me off-guard. The truth was that no, I had never kissed a boy either, but the question made me hesitate. They lept on that.
Honestly, kids can be horrible little creatures. They learn it from their parents, all those little prejudices that the grown ups hold but hold back on to be polite or to fit into changing worlds, they get magnified in children who don't know who and what and why, only that authority figures have taught them through their actions and the words they don't even realize the kids are paying attention to.
