okay, so it is a cultural thing to be okay with such treatment?

not ok. but ignore it. idk if that is cultural. i always say you sacrifice and put up a lot more with family than you would with others.

like my cousin looking me dead in the eye across from room at a family gathering and asking me (with a serious and confused faced) "is that all your real hair?"

Honestly, you don't even seem that into him. I could see if you just felt this passionate urge for him. It sounds more like a case of you being tempted cuz everyone is telling you he's no good.
Doesn't sound like its worth the family drama to me.
You may have been annoyed, but what you said was a really low blow. She may have been annoying you, but you came at her next like she disrespected you or something.
I'd say sit her down one on one, ask her what her issue is, apologize for the low blow, but stress to her that you're a grown woman who will date who she wants and you don't wanna discuss David with her anymore.
