There's a time where some people reach an age where they think back, "How? How could I have been so mean to BLANK?" What I'm trying to say is, how can some people care on how someone thinks, talks , acts. Or how someone looks, or their religious views, who they like or love ( Didn't know how to put that, sexuality? ) and more. I see this happen and HEAR it all the time at school or anywhere. It happened to me AND it still does.
Getting to know someone can be such a great thing, but when you take a different route, such as NOT getting to know someone, you would probably start judging. Now I'm sure that most people have judged, I for one have, but NEVER have actually really meant these things. That's because I don't even know them yet. The people who make fun of how you are are just people who don't know you for you yet, or just don't like it how you are. Which means give up on them and find the people who care for you!
I'm told at school that I'm gay. They say I act gay, dress gay, and that I just need to 'come out'. But what I do is ignore, because all I'm doing is being me. I have a girlfriend of 6 monthes and those hateful comments don't mean a thing to me. Live the life YOU want to live, don't let people take your happiness for their enjoyment of humiliating you.
Don't take in the hurtful, take in the love,happiness and those that care.
Short people usually outlive tall people, so big people like myself aren't destined to live too long. Look at it that way.
6'1'', 14 years of age. ( ALMOST 15 ). And short people aren't bad! All my friends are shorter than me, most of them...... actually, that's because I'm a tower compared to ANYONE so.
You know, maybe I just don't know how it feels due to my not experiencing it, but I think if you repress how you feel about someone at first, that seems dishonest (to me).
I do make "mean" comments, but they only SEEM mean. I don't insult something someone can't change (out loud), such as facial features or height, but I would try to let people lighten up about their or others problems they can't control. I do, however, comment when I perceive that who I am talking to can change something and I will not hurt them or they will hurt me. Not as a mean way to disguise my flaws, but as a mention of what they can fix.
Which is exactly what I'm talking about! ANd they only hate because they aren't like me or you or anyone that was or IS picked on.
Delayed response, but, the point I was initially trying to make is that the best policy is to stay out of their way. Angry, frustrated hormonal teens are not the best at rationalising in any situation, therefore direct confrontation will likely do more harm than good. And to all those people who think that's just a roundabout way of justifying acting like a pushover, it's an important life lesson to have the pride to turn away.

Yeah I see what your getting at. It seems like the only people really to harm others with words is the ones who are 'layers' so called. (Hormonal).
