Talk about timing.
I was at the bus stop with a friend of mine after school today. She was looking down so I asked her what was up. She told me some of the boys at school had been giving her a hard time, calling her names and harrassing her and she had no idea why. She was nearly in tears telling me and I was nearly in tears hearing it.

So I did what I normally do when comforting people. I gave her a massive squeezy hug and a kiss on the forehead.

And out of nowhere comes a barrage of abuse. Apparently the boys who'd been harrassing her had been right nearby and were watching us the whole time. "EMO!" "Fucking lezzers!" "Whores!" was yelled at us. One boy walked up to us and yelled "You sluts are fucking FILTH". He then spat on the ground at our feet and walked off.

Where the fuck were the teachers to stop this happening?
Less then 15m away. They did nothing. They didn't see it.

I gave her another hug and went to find a teacher as soon as she'd left. I found one and told him what had gone on.

I can (well I can't really but I'm used to it now) deal with it happening to me because I've been putting up with it for nearly 11 sodding years.
I'm fucked if I'm letting it happen to her. Dobbing? Absolutely. If it helps her - I really don't care less. I hope the pricks get suspended or expelled.

Go go VC!
Protecting someone is a great thing, and you did just that. You shouldn't have to put up with it either. *hugs* Just remember to burst out laughing when you thinking about them when you're on the plane...

Good for you!
Well done for helping out a friend and doing the right thing :-)
It won't be long before you can consign all the sad pathetic little bully boys to the dustbin of history-mere skidmarks on the toilet bowl of life!

The difference with being male, is undergoing a fair amount of physical abuse. Only recently I've started to properly fight back, As soon as you get out of there, keep your head high and know that you're probably going to have a better life than them.
