One day a
fourth-grade teacher asked the children what
their fathers did for a living. All the typical
answers came up -- fireman, mechanic,
businessman, salesman, doctor, lawyer, and so
forth.
However,
little Justin was being uncharacteristically
quiet, so when the teacher prodded him about his
father, he replied: "My father's an exotic
dancer in a gay cabaret and takes off all his
clothes in front of other men and they put money
in his underwear. Sometimes, if the offer is
really good, he will go home with some guy and
stay with him all night for money."
The teacher,
obviously shaken by this admission, hurriedly set
the other children to work on some exercises and
then took little Justin aside to ask him,
"Is that really true about your
father?"
"No,"
Justin said, "He works for the Democratic
National Committee and is helping to get Hillary
Clinton elected as our next President, but I was
too embarrassed to say that in front of the other
kids."
