Yes, unless you are looking for somebody to get naked with you.

Bear means support or stand, as well as being that animal I wake up as...

I think you are advising the poster not to confuse the verb bear with its homophone bare, or its noun form.

Josh, I used to mix up the bear/bare with "bear with me" or "I can't bear it" until someone pointed out that unless being naked with the person or the issue was my goal, I should use "bear." I've never gotten confused about which word to use since!
