A straight man and a gay man are talking. The straight man says, "I'm wanted in 2 states for murder." and the gay man replies with, "Oh, that sucks. I'm wanted in 13 for existing."
Wanted for Existing

Experiment
The joke plays on stereotypes. The straight man makes a claim about being a criminal, and the gay man's response is an exaggeration of the discrimination he may feel because of his identity. It is funny because it makes the gay man's identity a "crime" by satirizing the way society can treat homosexuals.
