Acceptance and tolerance needed immediately
What is tolerance?
Tolerance means something different to every person; it is something that makes us feel good about ourselves, something that allows us to live in society and accept certain rules and truths of behaviour.
Tolerance is a word that everyone knows and readily uses, but does not necessarily understand. Therefore, we can say that tolerance is not necessarily understood, even though many people consider themselves tolerant.
Definition of tolerance
According to the PWN dictionary, it is respect for other people's views, beliefs and preferences that differ from one's own.
