An old cowboy went to a bar and ordered a drink. As he sat sipping his whisky a young lady sat down next to him.

She turned to the cowboy and asked, “Are you a real cowboy?”

“Well,” he replied, “I’ve spent my whole life on the ranch, herding and branding cattle, mending fences and so forth, so I guess I am. How about you?”

“I’m a lesbian,” the woman replied. “I spend my whole day thinking about women. As soon as I get up in the morning I think about women. When I take a shower I think about women. While I watch TV or even eat I think about women. Everything seems to make me think about women.”

The two sat sipping in silence.

A short time later a man sat down on the other side of the old cowboy and asked, “Are you a real cowboy?”

“Well, I always thought I was,” he replied, “but it turns out I’m a lesbian.”
