Meh, you probably bullied them for good reason. Bullying is a healthy aspect of life for the most part.
Okay, no.

There is no good reason for bullying someone. There's nothing healthy or good about it. I can tell that you're regretful for bullying, Alex, and that's good. Bullying has a negative impact on a person's well-being and their self-esteem. Many people feel as though they can't do anything about it; teachers may be unresponsive and they may have gotten threats about telling someone else. It's not the fault of the person who's getting bullied, it's the fault of the bully, who's doing it for some reason, be it venting their anger or because they feel as though they're 'helping' them by bullying.

The only way as I have said before to end the this is either Fight or Ignore...

Two options it is that easy

For verbally bully Id suggest total ignorance...

For physically one Id suggest the first

The best option is to confront the bully, letting them know that you won't stand that kind of treatment. Make them realize that you're not weak enough to get picked on. Because that seems to be something that Bullies look for. It can be hard to bring up the courage to do that though.

And if you are weaker than them? Or in many cases, they are backed up by a gang of friends?

Bullying is the fault of the bully, it's not clever nor helpful to anyone.

Fighting back does not necessary mean physically fight .
You have to do something by yourself that is the only way to stop that

I never said physically fight either, but if you are weaker, then what can you do?

If you're weaker, then fight against him with your mind. I mean someone who's getting bullied is physically weaker right? But how about beating him mentally?

I don't think that'll work, maybe on TV but in reality acting smart may just land you with a black eye.

"I am the bone of my sword."

A rite of passage? Are you nuts? Hey here's an idea, let's go over to Sally and rape her repeatedly until she learns to fight for herself when she's being attacked and while we're at it, let's get a bunch of Jewish people together and put them into concentration camps so that they learn to fight for themselves because if this happened, the Holocaust would never have happened.

You cannot be serious.

Bullying isn't healthy, its not socially healthy, physically healthy, mentally healthy or anything of the sort. This why there is a difference between being assertive and being aggressive. Bullies are aggressive and attack those to feel a sense of power and authority over them. This is why you see people bully the weak and lonely and its never good.

You never see this:

John: Hey Joe and Mark, see Bill over there. He's often alone and doesn't have much friends. I think he's lacking some confidence and I feel it would be good if it we went over there and maybe rough him him softly. Tried to get him social and then work our ways to become his friends. Don't say anything to bad though, keep it low.

instead it's

John: Hey Joe and Mark! Look its that faggot Bill over there! Look at that f***ing douche over there! What are you doing faggot? Masturbating to your mom!?


I was a bullied quite a lot as a child. I was bullied for my beliefs and my thoughts and the way I dressed and acted. And the worst mistake I made was the fact that I ignored it all my life because I had this really big moral compass at the time and just had this "sticks and stones" mentality and it was probably the worst thing I ever did.

There are two things I needed to do. One was to propose myself to confidence. I had to stand up for myself in some way. Bullies attack the weak, once they can't bring control over you, they have lost their purpose. More so the second point I needed to do was to force this point on them. A bully won't stop if you merely ask them too.

You have to make them understand that they will stop and if they don't consequences will occur. This is why my counselor helped me with. She outright came and told my assailant that if he didn't stop, he'd get his a*** kicked out or whatever and she didn't play it nice either. Now a days I'm incredibly assertive, I will stand up for anything that I believe if I feel its worth it in the end.

There was an episode of Animianics a while ago with Slappy where her kid is constantly being bullied and Slappy was also "You got to show that bully, be confident, tell him what's what..." and the teacher or something (I don't recall its been a while since I've seen the episode obviously) was all "you got to be nice, ignore the bully, try to see a peaceful route."

And while it was cartoon, it made the point of bullying very clear in real life. You have to force the bullying to stop. Words aren't enough, you have to back them by action. Bullying wont' stop until you've stood up to yourself but its not a rite of passage or healthy or anything. People have committed suicide and killed others because of bullying.

I think he means like talking it out with the bully, or telling someone.

Who said rape is rite of passage? You are clearly taking your point too far. Bullying has been a rite of passage since the dawn of time. Whether you want to admit it or not.

Also. Rogafufuken is such a badazz name I'm jelly.

Talking it out won't help, I know that from experience. You can beat him when you're calling for a boobytrap. I remember getting beat up by a strong muscular guy who helped the victim. It was made up.

Yep it's a survival tactic Alex. We can't have all these weak men around, learn how to defend yourself and understand the man world of violence. That's when true respect comes in. When you realize what people are capable of doing to you.

Doesn't make it right though, does it?

And what about people who aren't confident enough to stand up for themselves? They'll put up with it because of, you guessed it, their survival instinct.
