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.
