In these days of rapidly-spreading same-sex marriages,
when same-sex partners even push baby carriages,
it can be an advantage for a man to have a name like Sue,
BECAUSE if he loves another guy, and they decide to say 'I do', ……
AND the 'guy's' parents are a little leery of their son's choice,
[even though, that-their-son-has-finally-'found love', they do rejoice],
THEN, at the reception, after the father starts his speech: 'How do you do? ',
'Dad' can follow with the one-liner: 'At least our son-in-law's NAME is Sue.'
