Were you bullied at school?

[kevbo]

Yeah, girls are vicious bitches...

The cheerleaders at my school had dog food thrown on them during a game...

I was never bullied for being gay. I had too many other issues for people to notice that I was gay.

I was mostly made fun of for being fat and having a speech impediment.

Damm ! You could have been me ... ! That was my problem until a guy got in my face one day .. I'd had enough . Three - Four years of abuse by these brats , so I grabbed him by his collars and pulled him towards me , brought my knee up as hard as I could and got him, right in his nuts ... NO ONE bothered me after that ...

no i agree with Pushyourluck, at my school, boys had a fight and that was it.
Girls would bitch and bitch for months until it evolved into a fight, which then got bigger and bigger until one girl eventually has to back down and has to leave the school.

No, tommeyharley is right here. I experienced exactly the same difference when it came to bullying in schools. The male of the species would fight it out, maybe get a few bruises and then make friends at the end of it all. The girls would carry on a tirade of abuse against the girls they had a problem with until that girl gave up hope and moved away or changed schools.

Has anyone here seen the movie "Mean Girls"??? If you have you'll agree that girls are much worse when it comes to bullying. They don't stop fighting until someone get's hit by a bus LOL!! For guys it's much differnt...they just fight it out and it's over.

And no I'm not bullied at school, but no one, not even my closest friends know i'm gay.

By the way MEAN GIRLS WAS A FICTIONAL FILM..

Based on a non fiction book entitled Queen Bees and Wannabes

 

[Pushyourluck]

Am I not a male of the species? They didn't fight it out with me they just kept on Physically and verbally attacking me for ten years..

Oh well.. my experiences don't count as usual..

By the way MEAN GIRLS WAS A FICTIONAL FILM..

Oh i'm terribly sorry, I didn't mean to side step your self pity.

I feel more sympathy for the children who get bullied at home...

I didn't even know when I was in high school, so I guess it doesn't apply to me. There was a guy that I was casual friends with that was clearly gay and I never saw anyone bully him. He was in my gym class for three years and I never even heard any comments in the showers.

 

[doglover]

I was never bullied at school, but I knew a young man who was gay in my class who was beaten up and harassed constantly. I regret very much now that I did nothing to stop it. I guess at this point in my life I was too busy trying to hide my own sexuality.

 

[kevbo]

Yes, children can get up and just walk out of their homes...

 

[Pushyourluck]

Why are you obsessed with the idea that girls are the worst bullies? It doesn't make sense.

90% of Prison inmates are men. Does that suggest anything to you..?

What does bullying have to do with inprisonment?

We're talking about bullying, not the ins and outs of the prison system.

Is there a link between bullying and prison? Do you have that link?

TommyHarley was saying, as I was, that in OUR opinion, girls made the worst bullies. The only thing we have to back that up is experiance. Sorry if that's not enough for you.

 

[kevbo]

skipping school? one can always leave school behind, if they so wish...

but clearly your experience is so paramount to anyone else's, so I'm not gonna argue with you.

I was on out-of-the-closet gay kid in a town of 1500 in a rural farming village in a remote corner of Atlantic Canada in the 80s.

so yes.. I got bullied BAD.

I was bitter for years but now it's just another thing that shaped me into the take-no-prisoners kind of guy that I am.

 

[Pushyourluck]

Its about MENS ATTITUDES..

You are portraying girls as nasty bitches when they clearly behave much better then men in general.. People end up in prison because of BAD BEHAVIOUR.

If men can behave antisocially enough to end up in prison.. then Is it not likely that they behaved equally antisocially in school?

Where did I state that I thought women were nasty bitches?

Women behave no differant than men when pushed to their limit. Believe me they don't. I have a friend who works in the prison system and she works in womens prisons. They are no differant to men, not any worse or better, just the same in their actions as men when incarcerated.

I agree, people end up in prison because of bad decisions/behaviour. What does that have to do with being bullied?

Men and women act antisocially in school and prison. You'd be a fool to state otherwise.

Somewhat in middle school. I was an outcast all through my school years - never fit into any of the cliques - but I wasn't bullied quite so much as I was ignored.

I had the traditional school fantasies of "showing them all" when I grew up. I recently found my school valedictorian/football quarterback (and how's that for a one-two punch) on myspace. He's apparently living in Hawaii, extremely successful financially...and horribly lonely. At least, he's "looking for friends/relationships/whatever", and he kept talking to me, the outcast, via MySpace. Maybe he's just really polite.

Did I have a good time in school? My middle school years were rough, but by high school, I was OK. Maybe I didn't have a GREAT time, but I had an OK time.

Lex

Same here...overlooked most of the times and when people did have something to say it was about my weight...you know how not being skinny is considered a sin in this day and age....but I am happy now and any heartache I went through then was worth getting to this point that I love myself and that I am my own man not just a face in the crowd..

 

[kevbo]

Buddy, you're a young man, hard man
Shouting in the street,
Gonna take on the world someday
You got blood on your face, big disgrace
Wavin' your banner all over the place...

 

[Soilwork]

I don't buy into that whole "It was the past...we were children" bull...

yeah... that's just a way for assholes to absolve themselves of any wrong-doing.

And if you still carry some bitterness towards them, the bully in them comes right back out.. try it some time.. let them know that you're a bit bitter and they'll immediately start in with the "Oh.. the baby wants to cry now" or "You need to grow up" or some noise like that. People like that ALWAYS project their own feelings on to other people.

It's kinda funny, really.

I was bullied, I had shit thrown at me constantly. People used to throw lit matches at me in the locker room but I had a lesbian body guard. =/ I miss her. She moved after 7th grade.

It happened to me during school, in further education courses, at work and I still get "bullied" today.

There are various reasons I get humiliated and taunted, not just because I'm gay. Although the more conscious I got about my sexual preference during my teen years, the more other people noticed it. It was never physical violence, only psychological, but if you are the only one with the traits you're getting made fun of and don't know anybody else that has the same problems, it's quite hard to cope with it and know how to fight back.

Did I mention I'm currently living off welfare because I couldn't get the education in the field I wanted?

It's great how sociopaths bully and mob others out of societal structures, then wonder why they have to pay such high taxes to keep up certain infrastructures.

And now with the internet and its archive possibilities, there's a huge wave of defamation, humiliation and stigmatization coming up that is destroying the life of the victims.

I'm still bitter today and there are many people I'd like to shoot if I was allowed to
