    My dad's side of the family has just begun to warm up to the idea of homosexuality, even though they are Roman Catholic. However, I have this one aunt who gets really uncomfortable when it is brought up. For example, rather than saying "gay" she says "gay, not that there's anything wrong with that", followed by a nervous laughter. It drives me CRAZY! How can I get her more comfortable with "the g word"?
    P.S. I realize gay and bisexual are two different things, one battle at a time please.

    Pope Francis used the "g word" with a straight face. So, there's that.
