My daughter is 6. She was being bullied by this girl who constantly tells her she's ugly. I told her to say "ok." And walk away. It worked lol. Then she started up again and I told her "next time she says you're ugly, start sniffing the air, make a cringe face, sniff towards her and say "omg, is that your breath?", cover your nose, cringe your face and walk away." It's been a year and the girl doesn't even speak to her anymore 😂
I did that when I was around 10. One of the boys that liked to bully decided it was a good idea to try to target me by calling me fat. I deadpanned with "Yes, I know. And?" The look of confusion on his face was priceless.
You are a great Mum, way to have your daughters' back like that. 😊👍👍
Yep, most of my bullies got bored with me because I agreed with them. Which was really easy when 98% of what they said was true, just said rudely. Like oh, you're mocking me for the stupid mistake I made in class? Well, it was stupid so why would I disagree? School bullies were a joke, I'd been trained by bullies with much more experience. Unfortunately that would be my parents.
I’m going to try that. I’m 14, so it might not work the same, but I am trying it.
@@waffles3629 EXZACHARY
I've actually had people ask me what's in my pants as a Trans man
I usually just end up saying, "Uhhh. My legs?"
Same. I either go "hm.... i guess my legs" or "pockets. I think i have some change in 'em, you need some?"
gonna use this in the future if I ever need to (I hope not)
As a gay trans guy Imma just say "your dad"
I always have something really random in my pockets. I like pulling out a tiny snail figurine and saying "a snail, you want one?"
You could say “My underwear!” And if they ask what’s in your underwear, get a really contemplative look and go “Y’know, I’m not certain. I’d have to check.”
And then later come up to them in a public setting and with no context say the material composition of your underwear and leave.
Some bully in my class called me gay as an 'insult', my reply was 'If you're interested just ask me out.' and he switched classes the next day
😂😂
BAHAAHA THATS HALARIOUS
Ok lets not act like he switched classes because of you.
@@tudytudy3316 No you're right, I did stretch the truth a little bit, I don't really know why he left but the biggest rumor was he moved, but I mean come on the timing was funny
@@tudytudy3316 why, TUDY
I have to take abuse awareness to volunteer with youth. An adult insisting that a child is “evil” or “satanic” is a sign of abuse we’re taught to look for. That Grandmother was emotionally abusing her grandchild & the mother was enabling it. It was vicious, cruel and the true evil in the story.
My mother still tells anyone who will listen about how "evil" and "satanic" I am. It's been going on since I was less than a year old and now I'm making eye contact with fifty.
I shut off contact with her a decade ago. I still hear about her doings from time to time, but I don't have to put up with her in my life.
@@tealkerberus748I'm so sorry you went through that! But good on you, distancing yourself from that toxicity! ❤
I'm glad to hear that helpers are being taught to be aware of that. A sure sign that humanity is getting at least a little better.
Beware the evangelical
Destruction of personal property is another a sign of abuse, whether in familial or romantic relationships. Things the person loves are targeted because they cause the most pain. If the destruction is done in front of the person, it’s also an implied threat, as in “this is what I want/will do to you.” In either case it’s essentially physical abuse by proxy, a symbolic destruction of the individual themself.
"all parties involved in a fight get punished" is way too common in schools and I assume it's just because they don't want to bother figuring out who's at fault.
Yup usually the case
Pretty much
Yep, and they'll even do it when it's obviously one parties fault. My school district was forced to change it after a 6th grader was punched unconscious by a few 12th graders. They were actually gonna suspend him and his friend who used his body as a shield until the parents threatened to sue. Like oh yeah, let's suspend the kid for being sent to the ICU.
@@waffles3629 That is insane. If they are that injured it’s very likely that they didn’t stat the fight. Even if they did start the fight they have suffered enough as it is with getting beaten up
Yeah, definitely. And there’s so much more unfair rules.
Fun Fact: Unicorns in the Bible are actually associated with Jesus. So that grandma doesn’t even know much about that book she loves so much.
I was just thinking that.
It's a mistranslation but as the grandma probably uses the KJV you're not wrong.
My bet is the grandma would be of the opinion that Jesus is a woke liberal hippie and not worth listening to. Unlike her pastor who tells exactly who to hate.
I was about to post the same thing lol
I notice a lot of them don't. Just cover to make everyone else miserable.
Telling people they shouldn't get a tattoo they clearly *already* have is so unhelpful. My daughter always says, if I can't fix it in 15 minutes don't tell me, ie: food in her teeth, smudge on her face or a change of clothes before we leave...telling someone they need to lose weight or get a tan or not wear that color when they can't change, just gives them something to worry about. Super crappy
That's such a good way to phrase that! I've been struggling getting that idea across to some of my family members lol
Absolutely spot on!
My family casually comments on my weight and there's always a compliment when I lose weight, but never if I gain it. I'm plump/chubby and I happen to like having more meat on my bones. I like having curves. So telling me it's great that I'm losing some pounds just pisses me off. I happen to also be Caucasian and I can't tell you the number of times my Caucasian family tell me to "get some sun". I like being white thank you very much. In fact, I'd prefer it if I were more pale. And, I'd tell them that, and they'd scoff or brush me off. Or tell me that I need clothing other than all black and dark colors. I happen to be a punk rock/goth/emo tribrid. I'm happy being different, and I wish my family would stop with trying to "convert" me. It also doesn't help that my family votes for Trump, other than my one awesome cousin. And I'm trans non-binary. I deal with a lot of bs. It's ridiculous.
@geminiwolf0077 i hope someday things get better for you. That's super shitty of your family. Proud of you for being who you want to be. Stay loving who you are, don't listen to ppl who say otherwise. I truly hope that you continue to have people around you that support you and respect you. 🙏 😁
Your daughter has a very wise quote now. That line could be on every teenage girl's Instagram it's so good.

When I was pregnant with my first child, my husband and I were in line at the market. I was REALLY pregnant, like unmistakably pregnant. There was a woman ahead of us who noticed me and squealed, “When are you due?” While reaching for my stomach. I looked her in the eye and said, “I’m not pregnant. It’s a tumor.” The woman was HORRIFIED. All of her groceries were already on the belt so she was stuck there. Once she was gone, my husband burst into laughter and asked me why. I said I was tired of being fondled by strangers. I’m POSITIVE she never did that again.
That was the perfect comeback. People seem to forget personal boundaries when it comes to pregnancy (and sometimes hair--can't tell you how many strangers wanted to grab/touch/stroke my hair when I was younger). It's bizarre and so inexcusable. It takes literally zero effort for a person to not put their hands on someone else.
@@gl8172 this was 25 years ago and people were more handsy back then. I was sick and tired of being touched. It felt so violating.
And I also had my hair touched constantly as a child! My hair has always been long, thick, and auburn. It was so unique that many women asked my mom for snips of it to take to their hairdresser. I mean, this was back in the 80’s when hair dye wasn’t as awesome but who the hell does that?!?! Freaking weirdos out there with zero restraint.
It’s always so weird when someone tries to touch the belly of a pregnant stranger. I can understand starting a conversation abt when someone is due. Even with that you never know if someone is pregnant or not so that question also could be bad. Someone might have a tumor or they could just look pregnant without actually being pregnant. Touching a pregnant belly without asking is so weird bc most the time they don’t want a random stranger touching their pregnant belly. If someone does want to touch the pregnant belly they should ask and respect whatever the answer is even if the answer is no
@@ArtByJUSTSAM Yikes! Reminds me of what happened to the Lassie dog with locks of hair hacked off for souvenirs.
@62 This is the odd thing for me, I had the opposite problem where preggy women would grab my hand and try to get me to touch their bellies because they could feel the kid moving about.
Then I'd be snarled at for "not being maternal enough" when I'd pull back not sharing their overwhelming joy (they were random strangers btw), that was 20 years ago and I'm SO GLAD things have changed now.
"What's in your pants?"
"Genitals. Why? Is there something else in yours?"
Lmao okay that one's pretty good
In my pants there usually is a little money, hair ties, my keys and a guitar pick.
"Do you really want to know? I assure you it's nothing you'd expect"
underwear.
Another, smaller set of pants
When I was in high school, I was SUPER short. Between the latter part of year 11 through year 12, i grew by almost 30cm. In year 10, though, i was barely breaking 120. My bully was a year older than me (same grade, though) and was the athletic type, 2 meters, muscles, all that. He always had other assholes with him, of course. One day, i had had ENOUGH and i put my fists up. He was cocky and said i could have one swing before he kicked my ass. I was too mad to stop, so i took a wild swing as high as i could reach, aiming for his jaw... And I missed... Barely...
And hit him right in the throat with all the tiny nerd rage my Chihuahua-esque body could summon. He instantly dropped to his knees, vomited, and wheezed for air. His whole posse backed up and wanted no part of the vicious little maniac that just dropped the biggest jock in school with one swing. The next day he apologized awkwardly for bullying me because apparently his mom told him that he got what he deserved. 😂 We actually ended up becoming really good friends because he was curious how i got so good at fighting (his dad was abusive, go figure) and I helped him study and get better grades. I did have to admit that it was a total accident, but he was cool with that. He took it as a wakeup call that he was being an asshole.
Glad to hear it ended up like that!
mf you pulled a goku and befriended a villain
My parents used to regularly perform exorcisms on me when I was only a baby. My mom's sister thought they were insane but couldn't convince them to stop. Not sure what a literal infant could do to make you think they're possessed but that's religious fundamentalism for you.
I mean my parents would jokingly call me their demon child as a baby because of the sounds I would make (probably acid reflux, I've heard my grandma make the same sounds in her sleep and it's legit terrifying lol)
Why didnt she call CPS??

Ugh, fuck TSA. I'm trans and they think my chest is a suspicious foreign object. One time the agent refused to believe that the only removable thing on my chest was clothing. He kept telling me I needed to take off whatever was on my chest, and I kept trying to explain that the only thing on my chest was clothing. Eventually I was told if I continued to refuse to cooperate I would not be flying. So I replied, in a louder voice than necessary for him to hear, "Are you ordering me to remove me shirt?". Wow, it was like magic how fast a supervisor appeared. He tried to bluster and say I was just refusing to cooperate and he obviously wasn't asking me to take off my clothes, just whatever was under my clothes. So the supervisor asked me what was under my clothes and I said "Boobs", only to be told that because I refused to answer, I would be patted down. Yeah, like two inches down my chest it was like his hand was magically repelled from my body. Like yeah, boobs, I told ya.
Edit- yes, I told him I'm trans, that's not the issue, his refusal to listen was
> just whatever was under my clothes.
"So you want me to take off my bra as well?"
"Skin? You want me to remove some skin? Tell me how to detach it, I'd LOVE to have that party trick."
@@rolfs2165 he wasn't even talking about bras (I wasn't wearing one anyway, I had a binder on), he wanted me to remove the non clothing item on my chest. Which would be...my chest.
💀 some people really are dense, huh?
@@waffles3629 I'm aware of that, but … y'know, if you're already going down that route anyway … ;)
In America, "zero tolerance policies" have nothing to do with protecting victims, and everything to do with protecting the school from liability. By suspending all students involved, even those involved unwillingly, the school decides that the fight is not their problem. The bullying is not their problem. Etc.
That’s the most disgusting thing I’ve ever heard, and the most disgusting part is it’s completely true!
Most disgusting school system of the whole world.
@@Robin93ksad part is it’s REALLY not.
I mean, it’s also there to stop the school from having to use resources to find out who was the problematic person.
Otherwise a bully could knock someone out in the bathroom and then hit themself, go run to the principal, and claim self defense and get the victim kicked out of school.
@@micaheiber1419funny enough, america is quite literally directly at fault for why a lot of countries (particularly south/central american countries) are poor and struggling the way they are
I remember when a bully said "Hey, are you gay" clearly planning to ask "Does your mom know your gay" or something like that. But I patted his shoulder and said "Sorry no, but you'll find someone, I know it" and walked past him as he stuttered, after leaving the room I heard a loud "HEY!" but I was already out of sight.
☠️
12:30 Congratulations Mom. You've taught your daughter to never get attached to anything because you'll just take it away and call your child a monster for liking something.
And here's my "traumatize them back" story - I was out with friends, most of whom are gay (I'm a straight cis woman). My 2 female friends (who are a couple) & I stepped outside to wait on the guys, who went to the men's room before we were to leave. A large group of frat bros walked by & preceded to catcall us, getting more disgusting in their comments & surrounding us to keep us from leaving. About this time, our male friends came out & seeing what the frat bros were doing, told them to leave us alone. They were like, "Sorry, didn't know they were yours". My male friends said "We're gay & they are not "ours", you just shouldn't speak to them that way." Frat bros yelled a few gay slurs as they ambled away. Then my friend Thomas, entered the scene. Thomas is 6'5, had played football & rugby at university & is so ripped, I'm pretty sure even his muscles have muscles. He is also very proudly gay & was wearing an "Out & Proud" t-shirt. He had overheard the entire thing & proceeded to follow the guys down the street, saying all the disgusting things to them that they had said to us. They kept walking faster & faster, with Thomas jogging behind them, catcalling & all of us following him, enjoying the show. By the time they were at the end of the block, frat bros were sprinting like they were running the 100-yard dash for Olympic gold. Thomas finally let them run away, yelling after them, "Remember this the next time you feel like harassing random women". Not all heroes wear capes, some of them wear "Out & Proud" t-shirts.
We stand Thomas 💅💅 I aspire to be like him. In vibes, cuz I am only 5' 7" and nonbinary/gender fluid 😂
This story screams "Homophobic men hate gay men because they don't want to be treated the same way they treat women"
I love this story so much! Everyone should have a friend like Thomas.
Hell yes!
Wow, A real life Thomas the Tank Engine, minus the Engine! Are you sure his name isn't Sherman or Abrams?
Either way, A true friend the world needs more of!
"What's in your pants?" has got to be the strangest, most inappropriate question you can ask a trans person, while still having the excuse of it just being a harmless question.
I think it's inappropriate to ask that of anyone. It's too specific 😭
Ikr?? Like I’ve never looked at someone and thought “Gee, I wonder what’s in their pants,” much less deciding to ask
I don't think any of the people asking it realise how weirded out they would be if someone walked up to them, looked them in the eyes and said "What's in your pants?"
if whats in your pants is your gender, my pronouns are under/wear
Hey! Do you have a COCK?
That's basically what that question is in blunter terms. Gross.
12:41 the most ridiculous thing about this story is that unicorns are mentioned as A FORM THAT ANGELS TAKE in medieval Christian stories.
Oh I thought unicorns were like pegasus from greek mythology.
Disabled Op with the wheelchair is NOT the butthole. I've had people ask me weird af questions because I have an invisible disability like "How can you go outside? You have autism? You're supposed to hate people????" And Its RUDE. I have literally been asked how can I even wear clothes because of my autism. And YES, I have been questioned about my s*x life too. People just are wild af and have no brains left I guess.
Thing with that is they have the excuse of literally being unable to experience it themselves.
@@Sleeper____1472 Doesn't mean they should ask kinda rude questions. You wouldn't ask a random woman how old she is would you? You wouldn't ask a man their penis size. To us with those disabilities, its seen as really intrusive to ask. They are not a doctor and thus have no reason nor right to an answer.
@shinyjules8088 If I were asked any of those I wouldn't really care. If people ask me my weight I tell them. If people ask me what's wrong with my brain I tell them anxiety. Depends how you're raised. There's not really a reason they shouldn't be shared, you're just taught not to.
@@Sleeper____1472 I would rather be treated as a normal average person than "That person with autism" thats why a lot of us dont share it with strangers. I went through my entire life of school being "That freak with autism" and had no friends. All because a teacher shared that information with the class I was in. Rumors spread, and not everyone is kind. I understand where you are coming from.
@@shinyjules8088 Yeah I guess it can depend on the environment you're in too. In my area people don't really care what you have unless you're an asshole with it.
Yep, zero tolerance fighting policies are utter bullshit. My school district was forced to change it after a 6th grader was punched unconscious by a bunch of 12th graders. They were actually gonna suspend him and his hella brave friend who literally used his body as a shield, well until the parents threatened to sue the district.
Were the 12th graders charged with assault? Beating a 10 or 11 year old kid freaking unconscious is a criminal act.
@@Bethsabee_Sheba_Newrose two of them ended up locked up for a year. Because they hit the 6th graders, hit the teachers who pulled them off the kids, hit the security guards who pulled them off the teachers and two of them were stupid enough to hit the cops who pulled them off the security guards. And they just so had the misfortune of being 18, so that went exactly as well as you'd expect. The rest of them got no legal punishment because all the court cared about was the cops getting hit. Because I don't count a restraining order as punishment. Like yeah, they can't go near the kids they assaulted, that's not a punishment.
@@waffles3629that escalated way too quickly, what even
I was suspended in high school because the girl my boyfriend was cheating on me with came from another school to beat me up.
@@theyoutubersfromdenmark8143 yeah, it wasn't my school (I went there for one class, long story that's not relevant to this) and I didn't know any of the students involved. But like, what the hell? One of them had a full ride to an ivy league school and instead went to prison. I have no idea how it went that wrong. It was like three weeks till graduation and they did this? Why??
"Never start a fight, but always finish it" sounds like the advice an anime parent/mentor would tell their child/student.
But it's really good irl advice.
Call me Ichigo, cause my dad always tells me that
Or Master Chief.
This is real advice in my house. The only time I ever got into trouble with my mom for "fighting" was when I didn't fight back. My principal was very shocked the first time he called her because I was fighting and she cut him off asking it I started it...
That's total BS. Most people who get bullied have no chance whatsoever "to finish it". This attitude is partly responsible that bullying is still so prevalent in the US because it puts blame on the victim for not being strong enough.
'swhat my dad told me. He expanded a little, though: "They hit you, *you punch them.* They kick you, *you stomp them."*
I didn't really traumatize anyone but a while back, (I'm a trans girl, MtF) I convinced someone who was being extremely nosy that I was a trans boy instead (FtM) so he was saying I'm "still a girl". Best validation ever

I felt that one tho :') EDS runs in the family, which means that I too can disassemble myself.
@@Liz-yp9im Me, too. As soon as OP explained they were dislocating their joints, I had a pretty good idea of what was coming.
My dislocations are usually restricted to my ribs. I can usually get the "out" ribs back in myself, but sometimes they get stuck, and then my muscles go into spasm, and it becomes much more painful. At least I know what's going on and why! I was diagnosed at 38, after a dozen years of trying to find explanations for my chronic pain. I've been doing my best to spread awareness through all of my medical team, so that maybe the next person doesn't have to go through what I did.

"All parties involved in a fight get punished."
Kids quickly realized even if you didn't start it, you're going to get punished anyway so why not go all out?
So under this rule fights are often MORE DANGEROUS than they would have been under different circumstances.
Yeah, the kids realized pretty quickly that if their getting in trouble anyway atleast they can walk away from the fight satisfied. I remember two guys getting into a scuffle in the hallway because one said something about the other's mom. Dude realized that he was going to get suspended either way and decided to break the kids nose
Wish I realized this when I was younger. I was the one always getting suspended/ISSed because my bullies would all back each other up that they were innocent and that I started it. 🙄 Maybe if I realized the first time that if I fucked them up instead of just defending myself, the first time would have been the last time and I wouldn't have suffered 6 years of hell.
This is 100% accurate, but it's worth noting that the reason these rules get implemented in the first place is that all the other rulesets have serious flaws as well:
'No punishments for anyone' is pretty obviously flawed.
'Those who started it are punished' very quickly results in all fights having as few witnesses as possible, so each side can claim the other started it. This effectively just turns into 'the less popular kids in a fight get punished', which is a very nasty standard to set.
'The least hurt kids in a fight get punished' is probably one of the better options, as it at least creates a strong deterrence against more-excessive levels of carnage, but it also makes kids very, _very_ good at the art at inflicting maximum pain with minimum evidence. And once that happens, all fights thereafter basically get treated as 'the kids who are least good at screaming and turning on the waterworks get punished', which is obviously not ideal.
The real issues are that:
A. Trying to address conflicts _after_ they escalate to violence is always the wrong approach. It's important to take notice and take action _before_ that.
B. Proper supervision is very very important. Large class sizes and low school budgets mean there's just not enough resources for teachers to actually protect the children under their care from each other.
C. It's high time we actually recognized that schools should teach life skills of all sorts, not just 'job skills'. Most adults today have thousands of hours of training and practice at math and linguistics and such, but their skills and knowledge for deescalation, conflict resolution, and how to build healthy and lasting relationships from scratch, are all barely above toddler-level. In some cases, what they've 'learned' about relationships and conflict resolution is so wrong and bad that it's _actively worse_ than knowing nothing at all.
Wasn’t there a story of a kid throwing their bully out of a window because of such rules
My dad's mindset was always "If you get in trouble for defending yourself, we're getting ice cream and playing videogames."
As much as I tried to avoid fights to avoid punishments from the school, it was good to know I could fall back on my dad if I got into trouble for BS like that.
I got verbally abused by a religious person when I was in a shopping centre. I'd just picked up the fourth Harry Potter book and was following my parents around in stores, reading it when I could. This guy comes up and starts this tyraid about witchcraft and satan and stuff. He was standing over me with this crazy look in his eye. I'm crying and when my mum notices, we leave the store immediately. Turns out he followed us somewhere else, still raving.
So my dad pulls me behind him, looks up at this man (the dude was quite tall) and said "If youre going to pick on someone smaller than you, try me instead. But I am going to warn you I will beat the **** out of you in front of everyone and it's not going to be pretty. "
The dude took one look at my dad, realised he was dead serious and left.
The fact the bully chose to pick on a child showed what "good" Christian he was.
Sounds like you’ve met my godawful uncle.
I had this one PE teacher who even though she knows I have asthma, she made me run the most saying that my condition is not that bad and that its gonna go away if I excercise and she constantly body shamed me saying stuff like "you from all your classmates should be training the most with that body" I am not even obese just slightly overweight because of medical treatment I had to get when I was younger which made people gain weight really fast. One time she even said to my MOM that I am too fat and that I need to work on myself. Like a week after, this dude in my class sprained her ankle, so when she came with the sprained ankle, visibly struggling to walk, and I told her to go on a a run because her condition "can't be that bad". She never talked to me ever again after that.
Your logic does not make sense.
Her logic doesn’t make sense
I have Asthma too, and I had too many similar experiences.
My friend posted a picture of her little boy (let's call him Joey) who loved Disney Princesses and their beautiful gowns. It was his birthday, he was with Rapunzle and in his best green dress. A stranger commented about how the mother shouldn't have dressed him like that, he's going to get teased etc etc etc. My friend said "No, he chose what to wear, he just loved princesses." Stranger went on a few more times, I finally said "Maybe your mum still dresses you but a 5 year old is perfectly capable of picking his own clothing out for his birthday party." Stranger went on about how he was destined to get beat up and high school is going to be treacherous because she is encouraging this. I'd had enough. The car crash that took several lives including Joey was very public and very violent so I replied to the stranger's comment with a link to the news articles and just said "He won't have to worry about high school. I would think the fact that the photo said "Joey's last birthday - I miss you so much." would have said it all but some people need help.
I am very sorry for your loss!
That's terrible, I'm so so sorry
Some fuckers just lose their ability to read the moment they see specific buzzwords.
I'm so, so sorry.
May that scumbag realize what a horrible person he is.
That took a turn
I'm transmasc, which makes people call me a biological woman. But by that definition, I should have a uterus, ovaries, and vagina. I was assigned female at birth, but what they missed until later in life is that I'm actually intersex... My external genitals developed, but my vagina never really did. I talk about it openly because I feel there needs to be someone who talks about this. In that situation, I would find a piece of paper and pen and draw a similar diagram to what my OBGYN drew to explain it to me.
It’s great that you’re open about it and willing to educate people. But it’s a shame that it’s ever necessary. People should be taught to mind their own damned business. The only people that need to know are your partners and your doctors.
There’s a Vagina Monologues story told by a similarly intersex woman (born w/o a vagina). It’s called the The Missing Vagina Monologue. I read it online a few months ago. What the doctors put her through as a 13 year old was awful.
I read that 6 times before realizing that you said 'transmasc' and not 'transphobic'
Well as long as you have the two important holes for your waste, the rest of it doesn't matter? I can be curious but I dare not ask for it being none of my beeswax even though I would rather know just so I'm not being ignorant in future, just forgetful.
@@Roadent1241yeah like why should anyone know/ask such personal info if they arent your doc or your partner? thats so nonsense
23:32 the TSA doesn't actually provide a necessary service and should just be abolished. It's security theater at best, and authorized harassment at worst. The only validation of the TSA's efforts comes from the TSA itself. They were audited by other agencies once to see if they'd catch various things (including weapons) they failed miserably. To my knowledge there's been no outside audit of the TSA since.
Just because a system is broken doesn’t mean you necessarily need to throw it out. It means you need to reassess and fix it. Airport security is necessary as terrorists continue to try and find new ways to bring down aircrafts. TSA definitely needs improvements in several areas but I don’t think abolishment of the agency is the right way to achieve this.
Part of the Aviation Security Act (Post 9/11) so probably will never happen.
@@vivianhunter2354 add to the fact that the idea that you can't get anything past TSA so you may as well not even try, is a very strong defence and has likely avoided many potential incidents.
The TSA one hits close to home. I'm a type 1 diabetic that's fully geared up. Dexcoms, my insulin pump, EVERYTHING. Now, my dexcom transmitters can't go through the little scanner belt thing because it'll ruin them, so we put them in a medical bag with all my other stuff like pump insets, insulin, syringes and needles, etc. and they have to swab every single item. They've made me open sealed packs of dexcoms so they could swab each sensor gun individually. I can't go through the full-body scanners for a similar reason, but it'll also crash my insulin pump which is literally the most deadly thing you can do to a diabetic. Unfortunately, my pump also has metal in it, which means I beep every time I go through the metal detectors and the only other option is a full-body patdown.
The worst TSA experience was when I was flying back to school over winter break (January 2024). I was with my very confrontational and aggressive (and tall) brother, luckily, because my social anxiety would've just let them ruin thousands of dollars worth of life-saving equipment that I simply can't get at school right now. Naturally, I beeped going through the metal detector, which is natural. I show them my insulin pump and they ask of it's attached to me.... Yes??? I don't magically teleport the insulin into my body otherwise I literally wouldn't need it. This was AFTER the TSA lady continued to try to force my medical bag into the conveyor belt after my brother repeatedly said that it can't go through and that he would sue if she continued to try it (he's planning to go to law school next year so...) which made her run off and not come back. The next guy was more accommodating, but it held up the line a ton because I'm here for 4+ months and need my stuff every day. They didn't have a woman that could pat me down despite me literally talking to 3 different women in TSA. Eventually I said fuck it, gave them my pump, told them to swab it quickly or the entire TSA would smell like insulin (I don't smell it anymore, but I hear it smells bad). They took too long, insulin started being pumped out due to my hourly basal, and they got pissed at me when they were standing there for like 20 minutes carefully swabbing it. This pump has been smacked against wood and metal, has been accidentally brought into water, has been dropped multiple times after ripping the inset out, etc. and they're worried a tiny swab would make it explode or something. This was a 40 minute ordeal of just me standing around and them swabbing my pump. Finally, I make it through to the other side of the metal detector and they're STILL swabbing my medical supplies. They even made me uncap one of the vials of insulin to make sure it was insulin. For context, they're snapped off, so you literally can't reseal them when they're opened. Unfortunately, I didn't have TSA pre check or Nexus as my previous pre checks were due to my parents and that I was a minor. I'm currently in the very long wait to get Nexus, which includes TSA pre, but it's taking a while. There were people waiting for their own stuff to be swabbed and even they said it was rediculous that they had to swab literally every little thing. They had me open one of my syringes so that I could prove that the insulin was in fact insulin... My brother blatantly said "This is insane. It's medical. [He's] 18. You think [he'll] be bringing a bomb on the plane when he literally failed Chemistry?" and the people waiting said "What a rediculous system. This is life saving equipment that you need a prescription for just to get. Not only that, but it's thousands upon thousands of dollars. No druggie or terrorist has that kind of money, patience, or ANYTHING to warrant faking diabetes to bomb a plane." A full fucking hour of waiting at TSA, holding up the line (which the other people were pissed at TSA, not us), and eventually my brother talking to the TSA manager who said this is "normal" (I've been diabetic for 7 years and we've never had this happen... wven when flying in the same airport). We're lucky we got there painfully early otherwise we probably would've missed our flight, which was literally the day before my brother had to go back to school.

Picture it. Elementary school in Montana. 1998. Me, AMAB 11 year old student, gets jumped by 3 older, larger boys. When I say I was jumped, it was multiple times, and a jungle gym was involved. Anyway, I got in trouble, because the school principal had a zero tolerance policy very similar to what was described in this video. She said I must have INSTIGATED the beating, and she apparently couldn't see from her office 15 feet away with the blinds and window wide open with essentially a ringside seat for this.
My mom gets called. I'm an absolute mess, and my principal is telling my mother that she wants to punish ME by making me be BEST FRIENDS with the boys that nearly unalived me and walk to school with them EVERY DAY for a YEAR.
My mother had had enough. She stood up to her full height, all 5 feet 0 inches of her, and without yelling or swearing, yet clearly enunciating every word, asks her how she would feel if she was r**ed, and at the trial, the judge ordered her to be BEST FRIENDS with the person who r**ed her, and walk to work with them every day. Then My mom said "Can you guarantee my child's safety in this school? Can you guarantee that they won't be harmed again or potentially unalived?" The principal waffled a bit, but finally said no. My mom said "Fine. I can." and she pulled me out of school.
I love my mom.
You are allowed to say “killed” in RUclips comments, they say “unalived” in videos to keep sensors away
Your mom should have sued.
When I was in elementary school I was SA'd by a high school boy on the school bus. I went to my school principle like I was taught and was basically told I was too young to know what really happened. My mom found out and was PISSED, apparently she caused such a scene that the principle (rightfully) lost his job. I have a lot of issues with my mom for a lot of reasons but I'll never forget that
@@godrickstockwell1505 The principal thought every parent was a conservative that didn't allow their kids to learn that these things are bad.

3:42 oh my god that reminds me of my weird bully story. I was in 9th grade and I had been out for like a year as trans and like 5 years as queer. This dude wouldn’t let go of calling me my dead name, I’d always ignore it (though I couldn’t help but flinch) but one day I was having a terrible day, and I was ready to go home, we were at bus circle and ofc, he took the time out of his day to say “hey [deadname]” the exact words I replied with were “you call me that again and you won’t have kids and your balls will have to descend again, call me dylan, or call me nothing,” could have been better, but pretty good for a first try
Strangely that's also my name, not Trans tho
This sub reminds me of the time when I was in I think my sophomore year in high school, when someone was spreading a rumor that I had lost my V-Card to him, news flash I didn’t, I’m a lesbian, but I decided that whenever anyone asked about it, I would just answer, “I ALMOST did, but the little guy was small and wouldn’t get up if you know what I mean” I think I destroyed that kid’s reputation and ego.
36:45 "you could've politely told her" No. People do this stuff all the time to disabled people, and worse! Even well meaning people like OP's friends will tell disabled people to back down, it's stupid. I'm glad they stood up for themself
It's odd that so many people think that they are intitled to being able to decide if they think someone is "disabled enough". It harms people inside of the community too, even without someone asking them directly, because it causes many people to stop themselves from using resources they need because they think they aren't struggling enough to use the resources and that tohers might have it worse. The idea that marginalized groups owe people explanations for their existence is so mind boggeling to me. We get enough invalidation for several life times from doctors alone, I just wish people would recognize that we don't owe kindest to those who don't give it to us
My response anytime someone tells me I take something "too far" is always "why is it okay for them to do it, but not for me to do it back to them? conversations ain't a one way road, don't drive in my lane and i won't crash into your car."
If someone feels "entitled" to be that invasive to complete strangers, you GOTTA be just as invasive to them to make them realize how out of pocket they were.
It's such bs, like just because someone is disabled they need to politely regurgitate either personal information or things one can learn if they just bothered to google, with a smile on their face. Or even have to disrupt their day at all to kindly ask someone to f off, when they're just trying to enjoy their ice cream or whatever. Why is the person being invasive and treating a stranger as a living museum exhibit deserving of politeness? Asking disabled people to put up with rudeness born of ignorance, and getting upset if they respond in kind is beyond hypocritical.
The "boys will be boys" one. In preschool there was a kid who'd hit me every day. Told my parents and the teacher, there was a discussion with both sets of parents and the teacher. Kid's parents said that line, my dad returned with "and girls will be girls". He came home and told me that the next time that kid hits me I have full permission to "handle my business". Next day I gave him 3 strikes. Hit 1: "don't touch me. Teacher, X hit me". Hit 2: "I told you to stop. Teacher, he did it again". Hit 3: didn't say anything, I just broke his nose.
The teacher relayed the days events to my parents, I got in no trouble. And even though the teacher did also tell him to stop he ignored her.
Dads give the most random, but amazingly functional fix-it-yourself issues. And if this happens again, show them your true power, morph into a being undescribable by anything other than "pure horror" and use your power to "vomit" metal sparks, it won't kill them, but it will hurt and burn, because girls will be girls 😊

Re: “Lady stop asking what’s in my pants I don’t want to have sex with you”
I used to use a similar tactic in high school. I was a queer kid going to Catholic school in a conservative town. I was deep in the closet and could “pass” most of the time, but the same was not true of some of my friends. On multiple occasions, people said things to me like “oh my goodness you’re friends with _____, right? I heard he’s gay, is that true?”. My response started being to pretend like I hadn’t understood their bitchy/ gossipy/ etc tone and to respond as if the gossiper had just admitted to having a massive crush on my friend. Eg “Ooooh why do you need to know? Are you in love with him? Aww that’s so cute that you have a crush!”
When I was in grade 8 (F presenting) a bully (who had multiple times gotten in trouble for bad comments and behaviour) told my friend, who is openly gay (I said I was lesbian then, but now I realized I’m nonbinary and have no clue about my sexuality) that if he were my friend he would kill me. He got suspended from the bus for two days. HE WAS ONLY SUSPENDED FROM THE BUS, WHICH I WASN’T EVEN ON, FOR ONLY 3 DAYS! it made me so mad, I didn’t tell my mom then, but later in grade 9 I did tell her. The only reason I told her though was because me and the kid were in the same science class and he asked my science teacher how gay people have kids, my science teacher told him that it depended on the person, and that the kid would have to ask someone personally. The kid then turned to me and said, if you and whatever wh*re you end up with want kids, i’d be happy to help. I told him that “oh, if I ever have kids i’ll just take them from homophobic a$$h*les like you, that way they’ll know what having parents who love them and each other is like.” My mom doesn’t like swearing, so o told her in a more pg way, but she got so mad on my behalf it made me so happy
Massive W you were delivering there.
I only got asked if I was gay in school once. It was from a total stranger and I was so stunned I didn't know what to say. Of course I immediately wished I had thought to say "why do you want to know? bc you like me?" But sadly I didn't. So I'm glad you got to actually say it to someone!!
Did you call the gossipers disgusting after asking if they had a crush? Cus ngl I'd probably do that.
i love to reply "i can set y'all up!! :D" it's a real winner too!

3 years ago we had to put my dog to sleep (she had late stage bone cancer) and i was always struggling with depression but that sent me to a downward spiral and i wasn't able to take care of myself properly... when i started to get better i shaved my really long curly hair off down to like 1-2 mm because it was tangled beyond saving and it helped me a lot with feeling better and also it was a confidence boost (i looked badass imo) but the amount of unsolicited opinions and questions from complete strangers was frustrating and most of them came from, you guessed it, men and the most common ones were "women should have long hair", "i don't find short hair on women attractive", "are you trying to be a man?", "only lesbians have short hair" and so on, but i was ignoring all of them until one day an older guy on a bus stop asked if i was a lesbian in a very degrading tone and i just had enough so i turned to him with a smile and said "no, but i have cancer" and i know it's wrong to lie about something like that but the look on his face as he paled and tried to stutter out an apology was priceless... i wanted to stay there and grill him some more but right then my bus arrived so i left him there to process all that... i bet he'll never ask a total stranger an invasive questions like that ever again :) or at least i hope
That story about the unicorns is messing me up. How can you mess up so badly as to make your child not only watch but participate in the destruction of stuff that clearly means a lot to her, and then tell her she's upset because she's in satan's grasp and is therefore evil FOR LIKING UNICORNS?! I never experienced anything like this, but I'm horrified. Anyone who accepts that such a harmless interest is evil, is an idiot with no imagination. To get to a point where your child doesn't cry or accept your peace offerings - you done MESSED UP.

My (30F) dad died a few years ago and I had flown back to my home state to be with him in his last days and then be with my family for a couple weeks to get affairs in order and just generally grieve together. Terrible time but I am also SO glad I was able to be there. Anyway, the day after I returned home I was driving through town and was pulled over-I think my tags were expired? The officer was just being, like, way too nosey especially after I said something like “oh shoot, it must have expired while I was out of town”, and he ended up asking me why I was out of town with this weird incriminating tone. I had spent several days crying and mourning and was pretty emotionally exhausted at this point so, I looked at him straight in the face and with a deadpan tone, told him “well, my dad died”. He visibly reeled and then rushed off to his patrol car to gather his paperwork returning with just a quick, short warning. That interaction actually made me laugh and I *know* my dad would have laughed as well! 😂
I went through many years of bullying in school and often was just keeping my tears in, and since my dad as a teacher had a similar schedule he often picked me up. At some point he started complaining that I wasn't smiling and that it would suck that I'm not smiling. I'm 18 now, graduating in three months, suffering from PTSD thanks to the bullying and what does my dad do? Tell me the exact same thing. Supportive father

I rarely got into fights, but I did get bulled sometimes. I dealt with them over time. One I wasn't able to, because he was much older than me, but the principle heard about it and had a talk with him, and so he stopped.

It's amazing how often disabled people get told that they should be more 'polite' to people asking invasive questions about their medical history and giving unwanted and unqualified advice. I'm definitely going to try asking invasive questions back next time some stranger decides to interrogate me, and i absolutely will NOT be 'polite'
It works so well! No one expects you to ask them back.
Yeah, it's honestly baffling to me, even as someone who's not disabled. It's why my only interactions are to either smile and nod at them, or simply make a small comment like "hope you're doing good". Of course... this is also how I generally react to just about anyone that I'd have a reason to interact with in such a way. Just small, positive comments. Because from personal experience, such things can really make a difference in someone's life and mental health if they actually are doing bad. (there was a time where I was feeling pretty depressed, and while out with family at a symphony, some random young girl (probably 14ish?) just randomly complemented my shirt and it seriously made my week. (I was with my grandmother at the time, and was around like 26, with a full beard, so it was really easy to take it as simply a random positive comment and nothing else.))
BTW, I do genuinely hope anyone reading this is doing well, and if you're not, that things improve for you soon.
It's the same sense of entitlement to answers people often take with transgender people as well, or neurodiverse people, or anything really not seen as "normal" by the ignorant masses.
"OMG you're not EXACTLY LIKE ME!! You must tell me everything now without complaint because I NEED TO KNOW!!"
This is why, whenever it comes to disabilities or other sensitive topics, I always make sure to include something like "just out of curiosity" and ESPECALLY something along the lines of "Only if you're comfortable answering that"
"How did your last colonoscopy go?" Should do the trick

@@vcool122yeah!
TSA patdowns turning into groping is absolutely routine, moreso if you're trans and the body scanner flags you for having unexpected shapes in unexpected places.
Trust me, most tsa agents are really invasive if you're disabled or trans
I'm an invisibly disabled, cisgender woman who has gotten multiple airport pat-downs. For the record, the term "pat-down" is misleading. There's really no patting; instead, the security agents smooth their hands along the body. I'll explain the procedure I've been through in detail as a reference, in case anyone is curious or wants a comparison point. I am happy to answer questions; nothing is off limits or too personal. Seriously. If I can be useful, I'm happy to do so. _Everyone_ should be treated with the dignity and respect I've been privileged (which I _hate,_ but will ruthlessly use as an ally) to experience.
I have an implanted medical device located in my back, just above my right hip. It pumps medication into my spine (kind of like an epidural, except a teensy bit deeper) to reduce my chronic pain from unbearable to just plain terrible. One of the benefits is that I get some pain relief without the drowsiness or other unpleasant side effects of other routes of pain medication delivery. (I'm happy to answer questions about this, and the spinal cord stimulator I had beforehand.) The general safety instructions, per the pump's user manual, caution me to avoid passing through any magnetic security devices that have a ceiling.
My pat-downs have been quite consistent.
As I am female-presenting, they find a female agent for me. This can take a while. There have been times I've waited at least twenty minutes (which cut it pretty clo, and have told them that I'm fine with a male agent performing the pat-down; I have had so many medical staff handle me that I long ago stopped caring about people touching me clinically. I do not remember any male agent performing a pat-down on me, but chronic migraines have made a mess of my memory, so I can't be sure. Hubs handles putting our belongings (including my shoes) through the metal detector and collecting them. He is not allowed near me from the moment I'm taken aside for my pat down.
Once they have a security agent, this is what happens:
-I stand on a mat, with my feet about hip-width apart, as indicated on the mat.
-The screener puts on fresh gloves.
-I'm asked to raise my arms, so that they're straight out, at roughly a 90° angle from my body.
-The screener usually starts with my front. With medium pressure, they hold the front of their hands flat against my body, with their fingers parallel with the floor, and make parallel, downward passes from shoulder-height to about where my breasts start (if I'm wearing clothing that covers this area). They do this until they have checked the whole area, from one shoulder to the other.
-They repeat the same motions from below my breasts (just under where the bottom of a bra hits) to about the level of my hip bones.
-They do the same with my legs. Some screeners curve their hands to follow the contours of my legs, and some keep their hands flat. They start fairly high up on the thighs, but _do not_ touch my crotch at all.
-When finished smoothing along my legs, they go back and carefully feel the hems of my clothing, and my ankles under my socks (if I'm wearing any).
-They follow the same procedure along my arms, checking the hems of sleeves. Once that is finished, I am allowed to put my arms down.
-Then, they explain that they will briefly run the *backs of their hands* over my breasts and pelvic area. This is always done quickly and clinically, using the same, parallel, downward motions as on the rest of my body. There is no lingering, grabbing, cupping, or anything of the sort. They do *not* put their hand(s) between my legs.
-They explain that they will hold one hand bladed (like a "karate chop" position) and run the side with the pinkie around the bottom contour of my breasts. This follows the path of where an underwire would sit on a bra. Again, it is done briskly and impersonally.
-They ask me to turn and face away from them, keeping my legs hip-width apart, and leaving my arms down.
-They follow the same procedure as with my front, only avoiding my buttocks.
-They notify me that they will use the backs of their hands on my buttocks, and use the same bladed hand position to run along the bottom curves of my buttocks, where they meet my legs.
-They check under my hair and squeeze along the length of a braid or ponytail. Some run their hands over the areas of my hair that are pulled back, too.
-Sometimes, they will wipe my skin, clothes, and/or carry-on with special paper that will pick up bits of debris that they can test for certain substances.
Security is not allowed to ask what my implanted medical device is for. They will ask the location, and if it is completely under my skin (it is). Sometimes they'll ask if it's a pacemaker or insulin pump, as those are most common. Since they can feel the pump through my skin when they reach that area of the pat-down, I pull my clothes aside, so they can see what it looks like, and confirm that the surgical scars are old and healed. They're not allowed to ask me to do that, but it makes the process easier for both of us if I volunteer it. I do have a card that was given to me by the device maker's representative to offer to security personnel. The card has some information on it, but TSA is not allowed to look at it, which is weird.
I live in Southern California, and have gone through these pat-down procedures at airports in San Diego, CA; Los Angeles, CA; Oakland, CA; San Jose, CA; Miami, FL; Lihue, HI; somewhere in Texas; Puerto Vallarta, Mexico; and Willemstad, Curacao. The procedure has been nearly identical at each airport, both inside and outside of the US.
I have found that the type of clothing I wear can make the process go faster and require a little less touching than I have described. This is what has worked for me, I am not advocating for or against it with regard to anyone else. I wear a form-fitting tank top, capri-length yoga pants, and either flipflops on bare feet or ankle-height socks and sneakers. I pull my hair back into a French braid or ponytail, and make sure my hair tie is not bulky and does not contain metal. The only jewelry I wear is my wedding ring and sometimes earrings. This leaves very little of my body obscured. If it's cold, I'll wear a hoodie or jacket, which I take off to put through the scanner with our other carry-on items.

I have a bad habit of shutting down instead of reacting when people bother me, physically/verbally, whatever. But somethings happen enough that they go too far and I snap. It only happens every once in a while, and I've gotten better since getting out of the horrible emotional trauma that is middle school, but I did throw a rock at a kid once after almost 2 years of bullying while I was trying to walk home from school. I have good aim, and hit him while he was running from me (he left me alone when he realized I wasn't afraid to do it again).
So it turns out my mom and I have similar tempers, and I found this out after I became an adult. Learned that one time when she was around the same age I was ^, she was playing field hockey for a school class and a couple guys pushed her too far. She went after them and completely forgot she was holding the hockey stick until they started screaming. No one got hurt, and she only got in a bit of trouble, but they left her alone after that.

I have a tattoo on the back of my shoulder with my Moms name, her birth and death year, and a rose petal (her favorite flower). I was hanging out at a beach with some friends when some random dude with his family yelled at me "You're gonna regret that tattoo when she leaves you." and I just respond with, "Well, she's dead. So....? -shrugs-" he shut up really quick and didn't make eye contact with me the rest of the day (it was a small lake beach). My mom passed in 08 and this happened in 2015 so I was perfectly okay with making jokes about it. Still am.

My ex once swapped his shoes with a girl mate of ours because her feet hurt. He then went to a bathrooms at a train stations, heels and all. There were cops in tbe bathroom and they were snickering to themselves.
He turned to them and loudly said, "You got a problem with gay people?" They panicked and stuttered "no" before leaving the bathroom.

When I was 14ish, the guy sitting besides me in class was sometimes saying random homophobic nonsense.
One day I told him I was gay. He turned white as a corpse then red and shut his mouth for the rest of the class.
A week later he came to me and apologized.
I responded something like "Yeah, whatever. And by the way, I'm not gay."
He looked at me like I just murdered his grandma.
"Why the hell would you lie on this subject ?!" he asked.
"Just to make you use your brain, for a change." I responded.

When I was eleven, I was standing up on the bus waiting to get off. An older boy behind me grabbed my butt. It scared me and I panicked. Because there were people in front of me, I couldn’t run so instinctively I turned around and punched him. The bus driver saw this and sent me to the principal. I told them what happened but they said it was my word against his because no one saw him grope me. They suspended me. My mom was FURIOUS. She treated the suspension like a vacation and I got ice cream and toys and whatever I wanted. She was proud of me for standing up for myself and said I did nothing wrong. My mom’s awesome.
I wish I had your confidence, the first time I got gropped(two 'p's or one? idk) I only slapped the dude's hand away and made a disgusted face, idk how to speak up for myself lol. Also, your mom sounds rad for having your back at the time.🔥🔥

It IS possible to build a society like that.
I accidentally traumatised some girl working in the supermarket.
For reference: my dad passed away (by a sudden accident) when I was 18, and 6 days before Father’s Day.
It took me and my mom around 4 days before we went to the store, because I was graduating in a few weeks and my mom had bought me a beer pong table.
When we tried to get our package (it didn’t say what was in). The woman happily gave it to me and mom while saying “you can see that Father’s Day is around the corner, huh? 😉”. I was shocked and started crying and went out of the store (since I didn’t know how to react on the accident there happend 4 days before). The lady looked confused at my mom, who replied “her father passed away 4 days ago”…
I still feel bad for the lady in the store, she was nice, but just on a really bad day.
This reminds me on an incident When I was in 6th grade.
A bit of backstory, in fourth grade I had dealt with a really shitty and abusive teacher, so much that for the next year I had to homeschool. During the time with the teacher, the other kids always called me annoying (undiagnosed adhd) as well as thinking the teachers abusive behavior was justified (duh they were 10). In 6th grade I went into a homeschool program so I could ease my way back into the school system again. One day this kid called me annoying, and it stung as it brought back memories of what had happened a few years prior. I told him to stop and he refused. The teachers could tell that he was triggering me (as my parents had informed them of the situation I was in) and told him to stop, but he didn’t listen. He was clearly having fun rialing me up, and the teachers (all of the, being their first year of teaching as it was a new program) didn’t know what to do. I eventually got pissed of and bitch slapped him in the face. I panicked for a quick second, thinking that the teachers would get angry and hit me or something, but literally no one gave a shit, some were even smiling and holding in laughter after seeing some tiny ass 6th grader make some 7th grader twice the size of her almost fall down. Not saying it’s ok to slap someone for calling you annoying, but he never bothered me again

My dad had his fun traumatizing TSA. Went through the metal detector sans belt so his pants were falling down. TSA got pissy that his pants were not as high up as they preferred and proceeded to do the detector wand wave. It went off over his pants zipper. After a short argument that it was the zipper and the agent denying that fact several times, the agent suggested going to a private booth to do a pat down only for my dad to announce very loudly for the entire line to hear that if they wanted to do that, they could do it in view of everyone so he had witnesses. He did not a pat down in the end and the agent seemed rather hesitant to do any pat downs after that.

I remember one time in middle school, this guy kept bugging me, calling me names that were slightly on the edge between fine and not fine. I remembered this idea that my mom told me that boys sometimes bully girls because they're attracted to you (I'm a female aromantic, so I take an academic approach at most to this sort of thing). This gave me an idea. One time he was nagging me, as usual, and I turned around and asked, IN THE MIDDLE OF CLASS, "do you bother me because you're attracted to me?" He turned beet red and put his head on his desk. He was the class subject of ridicule for a long time after that.
Ahh the classic ,,they just like you" excuse, I love it so much😊
Well, it worked, didn't it?
Well he didn’t say no 🤔
I wouldn't care all that much if he had said yes. He would be gutsy to do so, and it was that typical environment where boys couldn't show any emotion without being called names.
The aromantic academic approach to boys trying to bully you is the best tbh.
Oh you want to bully me? Well you're my test subject for human behaviour now. I will study you like a bug.
10:48 the bible usually says to protect children, not _be the reason they need protection._
"Abuse is sin. It doesn't matter if it's physical, emotional, verbal, sexual, or spiritual; it is all sin. Titus 2:4 says we are to love our children. The word "love" is an adjective based on the verb phileo-to treat affectionately and kindly; to have warm regards for. As an adjective, this love is to characterize our interaction with children. And there is no place in such love for abuse."
IT’s surprising that people interpret the Bible the way at they want to and leave out out the means
I love ya bud, but I don’t think that these sort of “Christians” actually care about the religion besides using it as an excuse for hatred, you’re kinda preaching to the choir here, pun intended.

Sadly, there are quite a few verses that talk about murdering infants or stoning children in the bible too.

My optician asked me every time if it was okay to touch me (even if it was just my hand) while I was learning how to use contacts. Wild how an optician is more considerate than a TSA agent who's job it is to pat people down.

About the catcalling thing: One time i went absolutely feral at a man that was always sitting in the outdoor space of a bar and was constantly catcalling every person who remotely looked female. I had to walk there to get to a friends house and every time he screamed very off-hand disgusting things, it was so annoying and i decided one day i'll just f with him so he hopefully stops. So i put make-up on, dressed real fancy and went on my way. Of course he was there at the bar again, harassing everyone. So as i walk by he screams at me, i look at him like "oooh you mean meee, strong man?" went right to him and as soon as i was just a few meters away i started acting like a maniac, screaming, growling, hissing, moving like gollum. You get the point. I'm pretty sure he shit his pants by the look on his face. 😂 After that i went on my merry way and never saw him again. 🤷😅
I feel like that strategy can backfire so easily. Like, in your scenario it's a bit harder because the dude wasn't expecting it, and yet if he was drunk enough he would 100% buy into it.
But if I were in the same situation as the guy in the video, I will full on capitalize on it. "I like your biceps, but I like them more without the shirt", "You're gonna love what I have without the pants then".
Do I want to do the girl? No. But gawd danmit I would love to be "that guy".
When people decide that the right answer to an issue is to try and prove a point in a very dumb way, they kinda deserve their scheme to backfire.
Don't do things just because you're angry. 9/10 times it can end up badly.
The story at 6:18 reminds me of The Binding of Isaac a bit, going in the child’s room and taking away all that was “evil” to them, which makes me scared of how common an occurrence it might be.
When I was 11 I had a wart removed from the sole of my foot, in the middle of the heel, and because of that, I had a note from the doctor to sit out of my PE classes for a couple of days while the wound healed. I only used that "excuse" for the activities I really couldn't do (basically anything involving putting my heel on the ground) but I still used my scooter to get to school every morning because I only needed to use the front of my foot to propel it, so it didn't hurt.
Well, one day we were supposed to do a running activity in PE and the teacher allowed me to skip it, but a group of my classmates started complaining that I was faking it to get out of the activity, that I couldn't have any problem because obviously, I was fine enough to use my scooter every day.
With a wicked smile I just went "oh yeah, I have a hole in my foot, do you wanna see it?" and started taking off my shoe and my sock and peeled off the bandaid that was covering the wound.
The look of absolute horror on their faces when they saw the 2cm wide hole in my heel was so satisfying. They all instantly looked away and begged me to cover it. They never said a word after that.
Proper procedure, power to you.

Just so you are all aware what the TSA did to you is considered sexual assault even officers of the law are not allowed to touch that area without extensive paperwork, witnesses and NEVER in public (on any gender)... IF THIS EVER HAPPENS TO YOU IMMEDIATELY GET A LAWYER!!!!!
Yeah but Trans people are more focused on the WORDS you say to them than the actions you enact on them!
So they literally enjoyed the simple human contact, because they didnt get none from dad.
But that's why they allowed the evident molestation.
The problem is that in some US states it is basically illegal to be trans, so the legal system wouldn’t give a poo.
It’s literally legal to end one of us just because the perpetrator thought the victim was creepy and upsetting in some states.

I had a strained relationship with my mom as a kid (it’s better now) and mind you she never did something like this, but one day we were arguing about some materials I had left out (i was and will always be a very artistic and creative person) and she said something along the lines of “oh, so you’re gonna make something with it? Using what? Your so called creativity?”
I burst into tears and she immediately apologized, still that ONE COMMENT stuck with me for a really long time. Sometimes it still causes me grief and adds to my extremely self critical thoughts.
Whenever I bring it up my mom always apologizes and feels bad because she KNOWS how much my creativity means to me and how insecure/ critical I can be about it. And she KNOWS that what she said was messed up and mean.
And that was ONE COMMENT, i can’t imagine what having your entire room burned and your interest be called satanic and evil would ever do to a child smh

I was bullied in school by one guy and his group of friends. He would try to trip me while I was going down the hall, sometimes getting his friends to help. I weighed about 250 pounds at the time and was pretty thin for my weight, along with a 35 pound bookbag. One time when I was sprinting through the hall to try to be on time, they tried to trip me. I decided going for them head on was a good idea. I slammed into them and didn’t lose any momentum, it was like a group of bowling pins getting knocked over. I was never punished for this as I was already gone by the time they told anyone.

Or the manga versions where he once cursed a man to see the world only in mosiac pixels and another to hear his own heartbeat above everything else?
