Answer
Your mother is in a different generation- one that is more strict and conservative than understanding and liberal. You can't make her accept you and the only reason she doesn't is because those are the beliefs she was not only raised with, but also that she simply lives by. You should stand up to her. Step up and yell back if you need to. Put your foot down and explain to her everything you told me and more. Put your put down. Stand your ground. Take charge of the situation and your own life!

And congrats on the 16 months of happiness :)
