A friend that I work with and I have a joke where we say to each other "It's ok, I tolerate your lifestyle."
This is not a gay joke. It's actually a joke against the kind of people who think they are making strides in equality, but actually slapping in the face those who need not be tolerated, but accepted.
Tolerance. If you tolerate something, it means that you are willing to look past something negative. It's like "I'm willing to tolerate that the fact that you're gay. Don't worry, I'm willing to look past it." Well gee whiz!! I'm so glad you can tolerate someone's warped freako lifestyle. How kind of you!
The word is acceptance. Don't tolerate people of other lifestyles. Educate, invite and accept them.
The next person who says "I tolerate [blank]" will be on the receiving end of my fist.
….and not in an alternative lifestyle way. :lol:
