Nah dude, the girls rarely ever bully boys, while boys will bully others for years without end - just for not being like them.

EDIT: yeah, I forgot you can't have a regular conversation over here without double checking every single fact as opposed to casually sharing your life experiences

    what is this shit. did you go to a single gender school or some nonsense?

    everybody bullies everyone. i went to to a school where some girls would fistfight and beat the shit out of the boys on occasion.

    I went to a rural school and we didn't really have that, outside of a few of them big farm girls. The corn makes em mean I presume.

    I can't think of a single girl fight in school actually only a couple outside of it. Lots and lots with the dudes though.

    cool. my school was a regional school of 4 towns and it had 2000 kids. there were a lot of fights, pregnancies, and the occasional rape/death once twice a year.

    no shootings though.

    This is well known to be false, and is probably just a reflection of your own experiences.

    Boys' bullying tends to be more direct, physical, and in-group/out-group oriented. Eg, the football team calls the fat kid a nerd and shoves him in a locker.

    Girls' bullying tends to be indirect, social, and oriented around group heirarchy. Eg, The popular girl who spreads a rumor about another popular girl's promiscuity.

    I don't want to diminish the painful experiences many have had with the more masculine form of bullying - but the upside is that if you want it to stop, there is an obvious solution. Conform and perform. If you're a nerd getting bullied by the football team, you can stop getting bullied by becoming a good football player. If you are being bullied in the feminine way, however, you might not even know it. And if you do, there is not a well-defined way to stop it.
