There are fucking people born without legs, blind and deaf people that can be happy with their lives, but someone kills themselves because others labeled them a slut and they are given the "woe is them" effect by the world. Kids who have been forced into war, and watched their entire family die, and overcome to become positive members of society, and then kids who kill themselves because they were called a "faggot". We are glorifying such a minor issue. Its fucking first world problems at its finest. Who in our generation was bullied at some point? All of us? Probably. Its a scapegoat for a weaker, more entitled generation.

With your double standard comment. You might want to take a look at who was bullying her. When 1 guy has a problem with another, they fight. When 1 girl has a problem with another girl, she makes the girls life HELL.

Guys are beyond bad when it comes to bullying. I've been bullied my whole life and still get it and I'm 30. I think it's some people have the ability to deal with it better then others.

guys are bad, but i think it's more physical and acting tough.

girls i think can be way more mean & catty and psychological. i think in that sense more damage is done.

i'd rather have someone beat me up than fuck with my head

Bullies prey on vulnerable people who don't defend themselves.

The problem I have, though, is that when you're in your early teens, especially as a girl, you hear words like "I love you" and "I promise not to tell anyone" thrown around a lot. Hormones are running overtime and messing with your emotions and ability to make reasoned decisions. I do realize that kids need to eventually learn that the world is, unfortunately, a cruel place and to be wary of who you trust, but still...

I still dislike the fact that there's a double standard when it comes to people sleeping with people. A guy sleeps with four cheerleaders at once and he's hailed as a hero by the school. A girl sleeps with four jocks and she's villianised as a slut. I genuinely don't understand where the discrepency between the two originated. Girls are just as hungry for sex as guys; it's simply that girls tend to have better control over it, especially once they realize they tend to hold the power. :lol

Frankly, so long as you wrap your shit, I could care less how many people someone sleeps with.

Oh... and kids these days need a good smack on their heads.

This is all bullshit.....everyone jumps around yelling, "Do you!", "YOLO", "Don't care what anyone else thinks", "Be Yourself", etc....but once someone does, they are bullied for it.

I am not saying that sleeping with a bunch of guys is a great choice to make health-wise, morally, ethically, mentally, etc....but I do not think it is a "reason" to bully her.

The thing that irks me the most is that it is a total double fucking standard! What about these guys!? Why is it the girls that get shit on? Guys will stand around and high-5 each other for 'fucking her' and the girl will get bullied, called a slut, bitch, whore, dirty, etc. Really think about that. Why is it ok? Nobody says anything about these 4 dudes hanging around with their dicks all out with each other!.

Why is it ok to bully someone when we can find a reason? Poor, slut, bad clothes, fat, skinny, big nose, bad hair, etc....

Would this be the same is she wore ugly pants to school?

"Well, what do you expect? We all knew those pants were ugly but she kept wearing them. She should have known better that when you wear ugly pants you will get bullied. Its her fault. She made the decision and knew the consequences."

Its all the same thing.
