A mother, accompanied by her small daughter, were in New York City. The
mother was trying to hail a cab, when her daughter noticed several wildly
dressed women who were loitering on a nearby street corner. The mother
finally hailed her cab and they both climbed in, at which point the
daughter asks her mother, “Mummie, what are all those ladies waiting for by
that corner?”, to which the mother replies, “Those ladies are waiting for
their husbands to come home from work.”
The cabbie, upon hearing this exchange, turns to the mother and says,
“Ahhhhhhh, C’mon lady!!!! Tell your daughter the truth!!!! For crying out
loud. They’re hookers!”
A brief period of silence follows, and the daughter then asks, “Mummie, do
the ladies have any children?”
The mother replies, “Of course dear. Where do you think cabbies come from?”
