I have been a Democrat since I was old enough to vote, but do I agree with EVERY SINGLE line item on the party platform? No. But I don't lay awake at night expecting the whole world to conform to what I think it should be. As an adult, I expect that there are going to be things that offend me, and that I need to learn to deal with those things rather than trying to change everyone else. Democrats are widely diverse and have widely different views about many things. To expect to put everyone into one, neat, perfect little box that keeps any one person happy and offends no one is expecting too much.
Perhaps the real question here is why are some so sensitive about any given topic?
