I get how you feel because your friend sounds just like one of my best friends. She's very traditional and conservative in her views (even said so using these exact words) and she uses 'gay' as a synonym for shitty ("that's so gay", etc). Then there was also this thing with a her former best friend who turned out to be lesbian and isn't her best friend anymore, and let's just say that homophobia wasn't exactly a jump to conclusion.

Then just last week she totally surprised me when we were at a bar and we were drawn into conversation with these three guys. I didn't recognize them but when we went to the bathroom she told me that two of them were married. Apparently they were the first gay couple to marry in our country and it was in the newspapers. She recognized them but didn't treat them any differently and had no problem joking with them.

My friend will proably never join PFLAG and while she has some homophobic views she's a lot more tolerant than I ever gave her credit for. The same could be true for your friend, OP.
