A gay man walks into a country bar and says, “I just want everyone to know that I’m gay… I’m not going to hit on anyone. I just like country music.”
The bartender says that it’s okay and the man stays.
The next day the gay man comes back with another guy and says, “This is my brother. I just want everyone to know that we’re gay, and we aren’t going hit on anyone… we just like country music.”
The bartender again says that is okay and the men stay.
The next day the man comes back, but this time he is with a group of gay men, “these are my cousins and my brother. I just want everyone to know that we’re gay, but we won’t hit on anyone. We just like country music.”
The bartender finally gets curious and asks, “Doesn’t ANYONE in your family like girls”
The gay man says, “yeah, but she doesn’t like country music.”
