Bullying

Good point. My preferences are girls and boys for youngsters; males and females within a clinical or analytical context; men and women, when names are unknown or irrelevant; ladies and gentlemen for formal occasions. Ladies I try to say or write whenever it's not cumbersome or distracting to do so in lieu of women. Bullies of either gender are to be pitied.

I don't even know whether 'pitied' is the correct stance here. Would you 'pity' someone who needed their gall bladder removed? Prompt intercession of a psychologist at the proper time can help guide the bully into a fuller/better growth of the emotional self, and continued attention can resolve the bully behavior entirely.

That "kind of talk" has nothing to do with the bedroom, cretin.

As though you'd know! 😛

Come back see me when you have the experience to know what you're talking about! 😉

I probably will not be seeing you for at least the next decade!!!

Your loss, you know.

Wouldn't it be refreshing to resolve your issues and grow into an actual human being?

After reading these posts for the past few minutes, it occurred to me that the only bullies mentioned are males. Females use a different type of bullying and it usually occurs first in the early teens. I was the victim of one such type of bully in my senior year of high school. It extended into our two years of college. Perhaps the common word would be "cattiness", but it was designed to humiliate me and cause the loss of other friendships.

I'm going to have to disagree with you on this one.

Women can be more intense in their bullying than men. I will not name names as that will upset the Moderation team. 😉 We certainly don't want to upset those dedicated souls who give of their free time! 🙂

Perhaps you should learn to practise what you preach.

I am sure you have more issues on your plate to deal with than I do. It shows from your daily postings. ( I sometimes wonder if you have a life away from this site) I am sure I am not the only one that has noticed this, as you've been dedicated at your pot stirring for years! 😛 😉

Have a wonderful evening and an even better tomorrow! 🙂

"...designed to humiliate me and cause the loss of other friendships."

I'd call that intense.

Male bullying is mostly designed to prevent apparent 'loss of face'. Usually by punching people out.

You have to have a friendship in order to lose a friendship to start wit! 😉

I believe punching people out is now done by both sexes. Males do it better because after the knock down punch 'em out fight they'll sit and have a drink together, and it is forgotten!

Women will bring up the issue 50 years later and give details that is intensity!!! 🙂

Accidently bumping into a table while the game is on the cards falling on the floor can cause words to be said that would make sailors and suzzie blush.

The need for gall bladder removal is a medical condition issue; the necessity of demonstrating bully behavior is self induced by a series of bad decisions from positions of both weakness (chronic trend) and strength (momentary lapse). (imo)

Hey, lemon lime, run with your brilliant idea to daylight! Goodness knows this faltering forum needs an infusion of new blood, even if it turns out to be yellow and green in color. Maybe your lemon lime Blood Type is O+ the Universal Donor.

My blood type is O+...
That's spooky, how do you do that?
