The young woman was visiting her great aunt, an elderly spinster:
"Don't you miss not having had a man in your life?" enquired the niece.
"Not at all",replied the aunt"I have always kept a goldfish,a parrot and a cat".
"But pet company does not compare to having a husband!" observed the niece,
"Oh yes it does, the fish drinks, the parrot swears and the cat stays out all night!"
The young couples' argument had reached the personal insult stage; "And that's another thing" she screamed "My mother thinks your effeminate!"
"Compared to her I probably am!" he retorted.
