Theres 3 guys in my office getting married next summer. They were talking casually with my office manager about how much time they will need off (AT LEAST a week and a half for each of them)
I chime in and say 'yeah, I'm going to need around 2 weeks off myself' and alllllllll of a sudden the mood changes and she says 'hmmm...I'm not sure how much time I can approve you for, I'll have to see'
If I had a d*ck I'd probably get 5 weeks paid vacation...I know it sounds mean but in my office its true

Have they been there longer than you? That's the ONLY reason I can think of that she may not give you the time you need is if you were new compared to employees that have been there for years.

I MAY need 1 or 2 days over my allotted vacation days but I didnt think that would be a huge deal for a life event!

That is soooo wrong. You should definitely talk to an HR manager or something, that is blatant sexism
