Four older men were playing golf.

Four older men were playing golf.

Three took turns at boasting about their sons, knowing the fourth son was gay, and having disparaging thoughts about him.

The first chap says: My son has done extremely well this year.

He has made such a pile that he was even able to make a friend a gift of a brand new house!

Wow, say the others.

The next father boasts, Well my boy this year did so well financially that he was able to give a friend a brand new Lamborghini!

Wow, say the others.

The third chap says: As for my son, this year he made so much extra money he was able to take a friend on a round-the-world cruise — they are still away!

Wow, say the others…respect!

The fourth father finally has a turn to speak. The other fathers stifle their laughter.

Well, as you know, my son is gay.

And this year he has done so extremely well….one lover gave him a brand new house; another lover gave him a brand new Lamborghini; and the third lover has taken him away on a round-the-world cruise….he’s still on it.

Silence.
