The distinction between this thread and general conversation is "casual" relationships. Once a person has gotten close enough to another person to include significant self-disclosure, honesty becomes more of an important factor. It is important to me if someone I date is genuinely racist in his-or-her thoughts, in ways that it is absolutely unimportant to me for someone I work with.
