- Religion
- Gay rights
This.
I already do this, because:
First one bores me and I know nothing about it (I know that's my problem, but it is what it is.)
Second one doesn't exist and I find it mindblowing, that so many people believe in these characters. "Faith by definition is to believe in something without any evidence, and I don't do that... because I'm not an idiot" lol
Third one I've got quite a negative opinion too. I know gay people and I'm ok with them individually, but there's no need for a guy to run around acting like a woman "OH HUN THAT'S FABULOUS!" ...you're trying to attract a guy who likes men, so you pretend to be a woman? It's not the gay thing that I dislike, it's the camp thing. I discriminate in a lot of ways and I really wish I didn't, cause it really shows an uneducated mind.But again it is what it is.
When I get asked something like what she asked you, I'd think about why she's asking. Lets say it's something like:
1. She's really passionate about gay rights etc - you'll never get a good reaction by instantly saying you dislike gay people in that situation
2. She has this gay friend who you "just have to meet" - again, bad reaction.
3. She passionately hates gays and everything about them - good job, you said the exact right thing
Lol seriously though, chances are it'd offend her if she's bringing gay people up. There's nothing wrong with not changing your opinion to match hers, but it's much better to say something like "It's up to them what they do, but I like women too much. Why, were you thinking I'm too good to be true and I must be either taken or gay?" just turn it into teasing and banter.
