So, I gave up on lunch today, and put my tray back. As I did so, one of the many people I work with noticed my attire. She came up and said "Interesting outfit."
"Yes, I think so," I replied.
"Don't you think it makes you look a little.... gay?"
I turned, put one hand on my hip, shifted weight a little, and put on my torch-song voice. I answered....
"Honey, I sure hope so!"
I cannot tell you the intensity of her expression. Surprise gave way to shock which lead to panic. She began to backpedle in voice and manner. "I'm sorry! I didn't mean..."
I laughed. "I have a wife and three kids. But, I do like to make sure people think about what they say."
One bright spot, in a day filled with meetings.
