Guess the Profession

A real-world riddle.

A woman married to another woman is raising a child she had with “a gender-fluid donor.”

What’s her job? Meaning, what field of human endeavor does she work in?

Nah, you normie. Wrong guess.

She’s a rabbi.

  1. I knew the riddle would be about guessing the most likely or the most unlikely profession… For most likely, I was thinking journalist (Masha Gessen came to mind), or the kind of academic who writes op-eds. For most unlikely, or most incongruous, I thought, somewhat randomly, obstetrician…

    As for rabbi, it sounds like it should be an unlikely answer, but in fact progressive female rabbi is now a sufficiently familiar figure, that it’s an unsurprising answer. At least to me.

    1. I had no idea Judaism was in such a dire state. In.my family, we haven’t practiced Judaism in over 100 years, so I haven’t been following the developments. That’s why I was floored by this.
