Why can’t I call myself New Mexican?

Since I basically just posted where I live. I want to know why my teacher said it’s offensive when I called myself New Mexican. Doesn’t even make sense why New York call themselves New Yorkers but I can’t call myself New Mexican?

Can any “Old Mexicans” confirm if this offends them

It's not catchy so you're just "from the south"

It's over
