Gay behavior clishee?

I‘m getting this a lot. I’m gay and look and behave, it seems, outside the gay clishee. Whenever I tell people I’m gay I get „What, you don’t look gay, you don’t behave gay, bla bla.“ Is this myth of all gays behaving differently still so deeply in the minds of the people that some don’t even believe you are, when you don’t behave the way they think you should? People should realize that these two things are not necessarily connected. A gay person can behave more manly/girly than the average and revert.
