In response to "While there some instances of bullying I might agree with you on, it was really tough to be taunted as "gay" in middle/high school." by MDH

I bullied people, I am not really proud of it, but some of the stories about Bullying are so tame to me.

There's a world of difference when that term is used against (or in earhost of) someone who is in fact gay - ty97 Oct 4, 11:11 2

I agree with you, and I obv turned out fine :-) (I think?) But there's a difference between bullying when you were in HS and I was, the internet. - MDH Oct 4, 11:09 7
- my god if facebook had existed back then (or even digicams) I would have died. - amanda Oct 4, 11:11 6
  - To think at the time I thought AOL IM and chat rooms were bad. Eesh, I can't even imagine today. -- nm - MDH Oct 4, 11:15 3
    - I don't see how one person could stand up to the kind of bullying some kids get today. -- nm - loosilu Oct 4, 11:16 2
      - there were different ways when we were kids. I could tell you stories but - amanda Oct 4, 11:19 1
        
        you say that as if I wouldn't know. -- nm - loosilu Oct 4, 11:21
  - yeah, it is an entirely different animal now. nm -- nm - groiny Oct 4, 11:15 1
    - but really i do think that facebook's new privacy controls help. el's friend joy has a daughter who is 13 and we all learned the hard way about - amanda Oct 4, 11:17
