THE GAY FLIGHT ATTENDANT


THE GAY FLIGHT ATTENDANT

My flight was being served by an obviously gay flight attendant who seemed to put everyone in a good mood as he served us food and drinks.

As the plane prepared to descend, he came
swishing down the aisle and told us that "Captain Marvey' has asked me to announce that he'll be landing the big scary plane shortly, so lovely people, if you could just put your trays up, that would be super."

On his trip back up the aisle, he noticed this well-dressed and rather Arabic looking woman hadn't moved a muscle. "Perhaps you didn't hear me over those big brute engines but I asked you to raise your trazy-poo so the
main man can pitty-pat us on the ground."

She calmly turned her head and said, "In my country I am called a Princess and I take orders from no one."

To which (I swear) the flight attendant replied, without missing a beat,"Well, sweet-cheeks, in my country I'm called a Queen, so I outrank you. Tray-up Bitch."

Ian's Inquiry: To be honest, I gave a good guffaw when I read this joke, but I wonder...Was this joke offensive to you? Have we reach a level of Political Correctness that we can no longer laugh at ourselves?

Althought I consider myself witty, I don't necessarily consider myself a 'swishy queen.' That said, I'm not offended by the joke...maybe because I don't see myself in that light AND there are folks who are in fact like that. I'd be offended if the joke was meant to imply ALL gay men.
