A Coming Out Moment

All of his life he knew he was gay. He wanted to come out, but didn't know what to say. Finally, he approached Mom and Dad one day. "Mother, Father," he said, "I am gay." His parents looked at each other not at all in dismay. "Well, DUHHHHH!!!!," is what Mom and Dad then did say. The moral? Come out of the closet. Don't be afraid. Everyone knows that you're gay anyway.
