Doctor's dilemma

A father and his son were travelling in a car speeding 120 kms perhour, were met with an accident and were seriously injured. They were immediately rushed to a nearby hospital where the operating surgeon weeps and says," I cannot operate this boy for he is my very own son" How is it possible?


Answer:

The operating surgeon must be obviously the boy's MOTHER. Most of us will be stumbling to find it out because we are used to think unwittingly that doctors and surgeons must be males. This kind of erraneous and false thinking mislead us and eclipses the rightpicture from our mind. Also surprisingly girls/women will answer this puzzle correctly due to the fact of awareness of their being feminine gender themselves.
