Taxi drivers and gay questions

Last night a driver picked up a fare and asked: "Does anybody know where an all male strip club is in San Diego?"

Dead silence.

Even if somebody knew, they would risk being labeled gay if they answered. I had to resist the urge to respond: "I thought you would know."

Later at a cab stand we were all laughing about the radio silence. Most of the other drivers said they picked up their mic, as I did, and then thought better of making a joke. Turns out, nobody does know where an all male strip club is. Maybe there aren't any around here. If I ever find out where one is, I'm certainly never going to say so on the radio...
