A man walked into the ladies’ department of Macy’s and shyly said to the woman at the counter, “I’d like to buy a bra for my wife.”
“What type of bra?” asked the clerk.
“Type?” inquired the man. “There’s more than one type?”
“Look around,” said the saleslady, as she showed a sea of bras in every shape, size, color, and material imaginable. “Actually, even with all of this variety, there are really only four types of bras to choose from.”
Relieved, the man asked about the types.
The saleslady replied, “There are the Catholic, the Salvation Army, the Presbyterian, and the Baptist types. Which one would you prefer?”
Now befuddled again, the man asked about the differences between them.
The saleslady responded, “It’s really quite simple. The Catholic type supports the masses. The Salvation Army type lifts the fallen, the Presbyterian type keeps them staunch and upright, and the Baptist type makes mountains out of mole hills.”
