Woman has the best response to her daughter's gay best friend's sleepover request

Everyone remembers the rules of childhood. No running in corridors, no chocolate until you finish your vegetables, and strictly no mixed-sex sleep overs.

Well, one man tried to bend this last rule, and the results were hilarious.

Mason wanted to stay over at his friend Houston's for a sleep over, but her mum had a single-sex only rule.

So he decided to text her and see if she would bend the rules for their blossoming friendship.

In a tweet he shared a picture of a text exchange he claims to have had with Houston's mum :

Hey Mrs Shelton! This is Mason Brian Barclay, I am one of Houston’s new best friends. If she had people over on Friday, would I, a homosexual male, be able to take part in the sleepover. I think the common meaning behind only allowing the same sex to share sleepovers is due to the typical interest in the opposite sex, when in this case, I do not like the opposite sex.

Surely no one can refuse such a request?

Well, Mrs Shelton didn't refused, instead she sent this reply:

Hmmm. Well, my husband is hot. Should I worry?
