I'm tired of being told by theists what it means to be an atheist.

Ah, but you DO have a belief. You believe that God does NOT exist. Denying the existence of God is, my friend, a belief. If you were claiming to be an agnostic, your above statement might POSSIBLY be defendable.
Elementary logic: NOT BELIEVING IN X IS NOT LOGICALLY EQUIVALENT TO DENYING X ALTOGETHER.
