Forbidden

The code is like a bond
A bond women dare to have broken
Its like a promise to the flag
Its a rule loudly spoken
If a lesbian dare speak to a man
She knows what awaits
Ridicule, judgement and pure hate
Dont get me wrong
A man I do not desire
But Id like to have a male friend
Without being called a liar
Just a good ol buddy
Someone to laugh n Hang out
Strictly a friendship 
The sex I can do without
Just cuz I'm lesbian doesn't mean I wanna hide from the scene
I want to be more inviting
Not so guarded and mean
Its as if male company is a deadly forbidden sin
But must I only be around my own gender
This is a concept Ill never comprehend
I like what i like (women)
Hell aren't men lesbians too
So why cant we be friends
Without hearing the bull*****from you
That life is forbidden
Sadly I know
But when I'm tired of these fake female friends
where else can i go
Am i wrong for my confusion
Should I just speak to whom I please
No, Not a good option
This isn't as simply solved as it seems
