i feel different

someone called me gay
and i laughed
how would they know
a stereotype because
i dress well
how i speak
just sensitivity
i feel
i'm the one who feels
questioning why
in simple minded ways
you would call me gay
why fitting into your
stereotypical role
defines the right way
stop
someone called me a man
and i laughed
if that meant being
of the stereotype
i'd rather not be defined
that way
define me as a person
different from you
