Hi pbtn,

Welcome to the forum. And thank you for posting.

I am glad you say that you have many gay and lesbian friends. Now. I have a question: do your friends know that you tolerate them? That's not how I think of my straight friends. The word draws to mind thoughts of 'in spite of'.

I encourage you to think about the use of this word.
