Scary Questions

I just read a friend's status on social media. She wrote that a new acquaintace of hers treated her lunch; after the lunch, that new acquaintance asked my fb friend, "What is your religion?"

Due to the fact that nowadays, Indonesia's atmosphere has easily got tense in the name of religion -- people seem no longer frendly anymore to other people with different religion/faith/spirituality, my friend was confused to answer that question. She regretted for accepting the free lunch. LOL. Would it make her in a difficult situation in the future?

In the same status, she wrote, "I would rather be asked when I would get married than what my religion was." (hey, read this in humorous tone, will ya? LOL)

Background:

Many women in certain age brackets are easily annoyed when they are asked about marital status.


Reading that status of hers, I remember one serial in Sex and the City. In that serial, Charlotte just got involved in a lesbian group. She thought those women were intellectual, successful, and fun to make friend with. She realized how nice her life was without feeling worried thinking about (unfaithful) men. LOL.

Perhaps she would go on being involved with those lesbian women -- as an alternative of her three best friend circle, Carrie, Samantha, and Miranda.

One day, her lesbian friends invited her to a party. One of the girl offered her to go on a holiday together with the others, to one exotic island. They would go there by private jet owned by the 'big boss'. Then, she introduced Charlotte to the big boss.

After some friendly chitchat, the big boss asked her, "Are you gay?"

Charlotte seemed unprepared with that question. (while in fact Samantha had warned her about this before.) Innocently she answered that she found a very nice bond among her new lesbian friends, very relieving to live without thinking of man, bla bla bla ... The most important point was, "In sex, I think, no, I believe I am straight."

The big boss smiled, while showing smurky face, "We will not accept you if you don't eat pussies." LOL.

So, my question is, in your opinion, which is the most threatening question?

1) What is your religion?
2) Are you married?
3) Are you gay?

LOL.
