The Gay Jean Debate
Customer: “Why do these jeans say ‘straight leg’ on the tag?”
Me: “Oh, we carry three different types of jeans. So, we mark each pair to—”
Customer: “No.”
Me: “I’m sorry?”
Customer: “That’s not right. Tell me the real reason!”
Me: “Because they’re straight legged jeans.”
Customer: “NO!”
Me: “Well…ma’am, why do you think they’re marked like that?”
Customer: “Well, how should I know? That’s why I asked you, but you won’t tell me!”
Me: “They say that because the jean legs are straight all the way down, see?”
Customer: *angry* “The jeans aren’t gay friendly?!”
Me: “Uh…no, they are. They’re totally gay friendly.”
Customer: *brightens* “Oh, okay!”
(And she bought them!)
