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 statement, 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," the boy said, "He works for the Democratic National Committee
and is helping to get Hillary Clinton to be our next President, but I was
too embarrassed to say that in front of the other kids."
