I always had to be tolerant at work, so got used to different views accepting them or coming to an arrangement.
I find people difficult to accept who have firm views on religion and lecture you expecting you to convert. 'DH worked with many people with different religions and we had to entertain, I tried to adapt the menu to be inclusive. Two of my friends were from minority religious groups and took some rap especially at bring and share buffets etc.
I do think I have got more bolshie as I have got older and will now air my views much more firmly and much to DH delight answer someone on the T.V. back or tell the washing machine to be quiet.
Today the High Court has agreed that children can be given puberty blockers.
