Enlightenment

Every other week, Clerkenwell Towers has a guy who comes in to give the staff free shiatsu massages. It's one of the perks of the job, and most of the staff go in for it. But there's just one or two who never put their names down.
I just had an extraordinary conversation with one of these nay-sayers.
Brusque northern colleague: Look at all those gayboys putting their names down for a massage.
Me: They're not gay.
BNC: They're getting a massage from a guy. That's gay.
Me: No it's not.
BNC: Totally gay.
Me: The massage guy is married with three children.
BNC: Listen, that means nothing. It's still gay.
Me: So what if it was me getting a massage from a woman?
BNC: (decisively) Lesbian.
Me: What decade are you living in?
BNC: Hey, I'm an enlightened guy.

That soft percolating sound you can hear is the sound of my poor mind, boggling.

It's obvious he's in denial. He so wants it.
