While exploring the wild change rooms at the French Maid, Ray was captured by hostile drag queens.

Esther and Steve, the powerful chiefs of the auditing world told him he could make one final statement which would determine how he would die.

If the statement he made was false, he would be castrated.

If the statement were true, he would be raped by men (ie. Shane Grennan).

Ray found neither of this options to his liking, so he made a statement that got him out of this seemingly impossible situation.

What is the one statement he could make to save himself?

edit. sorry.

He says, "You will have me castrated."

If it were "true", they would have him raped, which means that the statement was actually false. Accordingly, he should then be castrated as per a false statement - but if they go to castrate him, the statement is then true, leading to a reversion to falsehood and an endless logic loop - and thus they would have to let him go as no decision could ever be reached.

shouldn't he should be able to say a lot of things? For example if he said "What the F**k" it should work since that can't be considered true or false
