A Straight Guy In a Gay Tie

A Straight Guy in a Gay Tie Some Men want to be Girlies, Some Girls want to be Boys, Some Guys like to play Barbie’s, Some Ladies like Tonka Toys. Genes get a bit muddled up, It happens, It’s all in the brew. Genetic codes keep us guessing, When one is created by two. Now, I like to think I’m a Man’s Man, My Wife is all Woman, not a Guy. An easy-going chap with no hang ups, A Straight Man who wears a Gay Tie.

I like it Kevin- especially that first quatrain, "Some Men want to be Girlies, Some Girls want to be Boys, Some Guys like to play Barbie’s, Some Ladies like Tonka Toys." It's all about how the genes feel on you not how they look in the mirror.
