This is a great story. I found it a bit comical. While I do not understand the prejudices of the store owner and his/ her prehistoric thinking. I do have to respect the fact that good material for a good story is lurking around every corner. I'm happy you recognized it and told your story. Loved it!

I enjoyed this story. I hope that you and your friend were able to get a laugh out of it, at least. We all make assumptions in life every day, for better or worse.

I thought that the gift was going to be for Zoe as you two were the cat people and Kirby and Jodi preferred dogs. Nevertheless I did enjoy your story- it was told well and makes the point about how easy to is to make assumptions about people and their lifestyles. Well written and best wishes in the contest.

    Wendy, Thank you for reading. The artwork was for Zoe She enjoyed it until she died three years ago. I still have it, but my will gives it to Kirby when I die, after all, it's his story as much as mine. Terry.

    Oh sorry! When you said ?surprise? at the end I thought you were giving it to him. The surprise was that he was counted as the young lover. Lol. I?m such a dill! Lol.

Some people stereotype a person. And you never know who you are talking to. And no, it should not matter if someone is gay or not. The person who made those comments should be fired.

    Dang, you are tough! It was interesting. My wife and I lived in a predominantly gay neighborhood in inter-city Dallas for many years. One of her friends asked her once if the gay guys bothered me. She replied, "No, Terry wears his jeans too baggy!" Thank you for reading and reviewing. Terry.

Haha sometimes, we are the last to know. :-) This was a cute story and I could picture each scene as you described it. I would love to have an Andy Warhol painting! They are way too expensive now though.

Thank you for sharing this, and have a wonderful weekend.

We are in a sense programmed to make sense of our world through the experiences and knowledge we have and sometimes we make assumptions that are completely wrong and we just hope we don't offend anyone, a fine write, much enjoyed, love Dolly x

This was a very humorous story. Why did the manager thought that? The story was well written. The flow of the story was good. Good details throughout the story. Nice job.

    Thank you very much. I am thinking that manager thought if a guy liked Andy Warhol, he must be gay. Terry.
