Many years ago a local dry cleaner had a 2 for 1 special on slacks. I took one pair of my husband’s (at the time) and one pair of mine. The lady wrote up the ticket and then noticed that one was a ladies pair and one was a mens pair. However, they were both wool slacks with zippers in the front. She started to argue with me that I couldn’t do that – they had to both mens or both ladies. I told her that I couldn’t see what the difference was. Finally I was exasperated and told her that both pairs belonged to me husband. I said “on the weekends he is a cross dresser.” She looked at me as if I were nuts (not far wrong) and I walked out with my claim check. When I came back a few days later, both pairs were cleaned and I got the sale price.
