In the Hospital the relatives gathered in the waiting room, where their

family member lay gravely ill. Finally, the doctor came in looking tired and

sombre.

 

"I'm afraid I'm the bearer of bad news," he said as he surveyed the worried

faces. "The only hope left for your loved

one at this time is a brain transplant. It's an experimental procedure,

semi-risky, and you will have to pay for the brain yourselves."

 

The family members sat silent as they absorbed the news. After a great

length of time, someone asked:

"Well, how much does a brain cost?"

The doctor quickly responded: "$5,000 for a male brain, and $200 for a

female brain."

 

The moment turned awkward. Men in the room tried not to smile, avoiding eye

contact with the women, but some actually smirked. One man, unable to

control his curiosity, blurted out the question everyone wanted to ask:

"Why is the male brain so much more?"

 

The doctor smiled at the childish innocence and so to the entire group said:

"It's just standard pricing procedure. We have to mark down the price of the

female brains, because they've been used."
