One day Benjy comes home from school, goes straight to his father and asks, "What is fornication, Dad?"

He gets the answer all Jewish fathers give: "Why don't you ask your mother, Son?"

So Benjy goes into the kitchen and asks his mother, "What is fornication
Mom?  Dad said you would know."

His mother replies, "I'm busy right now, Benjy, why don't you go ask your bubbe? She will tell you."

So Benjy goes upstairs to his bubbe's room, knocks on her door and
shouts, "Please Bubbe, what is fornication?  No one here seems to know."

Bubbe says, "Come insidetatellah."

She then takes him to her closet, opens the door, takes out a  beautiful
full-length pink, beaded evening dress and  says, "This, tatellah, is foranoccasion."
