Four guys sitting around having drinks and one of the men had to use the restroom. The three others talked about their kids. The first guy said, “My son is my pride and joy, he started working at a company at the bottom. He studied business and began to climb the corporate ladder, became president of the company. He’s so rich, he gave his best friend a top-of-the-line Mercedes for Christmas.” The second guy said, “damn, that’s terrific! My son is also the pride-and-joy. He started working for a big airline and went to flight school to become a pilot. He became a partner, where he owns the majority of its assets. He is so rich that he gave his best friend a brand-new jet as a Christmas gift.” The third man said “Well that’s terrific1! My son studied in the best universities and became an engineer, started his own construction company, and is now a multimillionaire. He also gave an expensive Christmas gift to his best friend, a 30,000-square-foot mansion!” The three guys congratulated each other, just as the fourth guy returned from the restroom and asked, “What are all the congratulations for?” One of the three guys said, “We’re talking about the pride we feel for the successes of our sons…” What about your son?” they asked the fourth guy. The fourth man replied. “My son is gay and makes a living dancing as a stripper at a nightclub.” The three friends said, “That’s a shame… what a disappointment.” The fourth man replied. “Nah, I’m not ashamed, he’s my son, and I love him…and he hasn’t done too badly either. Just this Christmas alone, he received a beautiful 30,000-square-foot mansion, a brand-new jet, and a top-of-the-line Mercedes from his three boyfriends.
