Q. How are men and parking lots similar?
A. Most of the good ones are taken. Only the handicapped ones are left.
This was a joke my wife heard at work around a luncheon. My wife courageously
stood up and said, "I really don't appreciate those kinds of jokes." "My
husband is disabled" She described how many came to her after and apologized.
My point. Attitudes do not change.
My wife's point. Attitudes can be changed. She argues that her stance "sows
seeds for change" in that when the same people plan to tell these jokes again
they will remember her and be forced to wrestle with their conscience.
What do you think? Anyone?
