LOL I'm a PC GONE MAD character, that's a good one. I'll stand up against the PC idiots, doesn't mean I'm any sort of extremist like you're trying to make out to suit your weak argument. The simple answer to your question is there is no term required. These silly pop culture trashy terms and categories are for narrow minds, we should encourage people to dismiss these categories, that's exactly what insult removed were fighting for in the first place when they were treated differently.

So how do we refer to them in conversation?

I'm interested to know how you would enter a conversation such as this one without a term to refer to people who are not hostile towards gay people?

People who are not hostile towards gay people. Use that if you need one so much.

And then you've just proven my point.

If someone had made a thread using that term, you'd say the same thing. Plus it's longer. "Gay Friendly" is just a shortened version of that.

Not really. I was being patronising because you're adamant about not giving up on this battle of semantics. Like I said before, just don't use a term. Speak about people as individuals, don't try and herd them based on their attitude to sexual preferance.

But the discussion is about attitudes to sexual preferences, it would be difficult not to use a term
