Although fat people are a perfect example of people who should be bullied into changing their habits (and a clear example why the bullying is happening because of parents being fucking idiots who failed to provide their kid with a proper diet and exercise).

It is far better for the truth to tear my flesh to pieces, then for my soul to wander through darkness in eternal damnation.

Jet: So what kind of woman is she? What's Julia like?
Faye: Ordinary. The kind of beautiful, dangerous ordinary that you just can't leave alone.
Jet: I see.
Faye: Like an angel from the underworld. Or a devil from Paradise.

So, who the hell has purple hair?
Garbon, way back in the day (2005ish?).

Which is fine with me, but when you do that you have to realize there are people who will mock you and you have to own that.

The thing is, the older I get, the more I think that people should have a right to be amused/scared/weirded out/disgusted by stuff other people do or like. As long as everyone has equal rights and there is no violence, you can mock other people if you want and they can mock you in return. (Which is why I oppose various hate speech laws - save, of course, for a straightforward incitement to crime/violence - because they create protected groups and effectively remove equal rights. Why is it fine to make fun of - or say you are disgusted by - a BDSM fetish guy for barking like a dog during a sex act, but it is no longer fine to make fun of a gay guy for sucking a dick? Or if an educated urban comedian lampoons a redneck's hillbilly accent, everyone is fine with that, but when a white comedian start talking ebonics, he gets decried as a racist?)

Looks better this way.

Now go fuck with somebody much bigger than you and get body slammed, you 115lbs effeminate cocksucker.

Martinus

Lol nice troll. Are you seriously equating obesity with homosexuality?  :lol:

Martinus

Btw, is the "effeminate" and "115 lbs" some sort of internet meme, like Sheilbh living in a castle? :D

I'm not really sure how you can remove cultural/sub-culture from said traits as that's exactly how they become identities.

So what? I'm not really sure I can see your point. Are you saying that anything that makes up someone's "identity" should be exempted from being mocked? That's a ridiculous position to take.

I think you're taking the absurd position that schools should allow mockery. I'm not saying it should be verboten to make fun of someone, as it never is in life - but schools shouldn't passively or actively encourage bullies and in fact should punish them.

False. Never had purple hair / I first started dyeing my hair freshman year in high school and no one gave me shit.

Too bad. Perhaps if you were bullied, you would grow up sane. :P

Sure.  They're both undesirable traits, although gay is so much worse.
I do not hate you, nor do I love you, but you are made out of atoms which I can use for something else.

So societal norms are a good basis for bullying?

Bullies are needed to enforce the social norms that exist to make sure you're not bullied.
