How do you deal with big bullies?(regarding someone calling another gay)

[joshduder]

People often call my neighbour gay when he says hes not?

How should he respond back i feel sry for him being teased that way..

He says shut up, youre a lesbian,etc but he gets backfired even more.
Ignoring doesnt help also

ppl here simply fail to realise that its ones sexuality and it has to be respected

I know what he is going through, because thats what happens to me. I have rumors about me being gay, and Im not. Its the jerks at school who say comments like "Faggot, Gay, queer," and sometimes they will ask if Im gay in front of everyone just to be a jerk. Yeah, ignoring them doesnt really work. This really hasnt been that big of a problem as it was last year, but I didnt know what to do, so I went to Admin. He should go to admin, even if they dont really do anything. If its a neighborhood problem, I would go to my parents about it...I hope this helps, if not then I hope it all works out.

yes...i think he's gone to admin and parents but he gets tagged as mamas boy, complain box,etc.

Honestly saying nothing would be the best idea. Retalliating is only going to let the bullies know they are getting through and all they want is a reaction. Ignoring them shows that he is stronger and more mature than them, he doesn't need to go down to their level. Eventually if he holds out for a while (more than a few weeks) things should start to die down and sure there might be some instances in the future where he might be reffered to as "gay" again but just brushing it off is all that's needed. He knows it's not true and although the name calling annoying and can hurt that's the only opinion that's valid.

NIce i'll tell him 2 try that again

I'd say, I'm not gay, but I would be for you if that's what your into. But only you, no one else.

Another one I've said is sorry, my dick isn't big enough to be gay. That's two birds with one stone, if the guys are str8 that also brag on size it's like a double stfu

[Stronger]

This is really upsetting to hear, since I went through the same shit, and I ignored it all, simply I would say that is the best way, becuase they will just contiune to feed off of what he says, simply just tell him to say fuck off, and leave it alone. How old is this person that is getting bullied? Also what he can do, just laugh at it, laugh in there face pretend like their words are shit, which in this case is the truth, but I do wish neighboor all the luck with this.

I agree with what most of the other people here said but also you should help by standing up for him whenever possible show those asses that they cant push him around and that he has friends backing him up.

Well I am a very straight acting gay and I never get bullied cos I don't think I have anything to be bullied for. But he should just ignore it cos they will get bored of it eventually... I feel real sorry for him tho I hate bullies :@

He should say "your know what?? You spend your time picking on me because you're so damn insecure about yourself and you get off making other people more miserable than yourself. Maybe you're just gay and can't cope with it so you go around calling kids gay. Grow up and get help"

The response with probably just be f*ck you! And he/she will leave.

The same thing happens to me. I get why people think it because I do act like it but I just ignore ppl when they say things about me or something. Or I just giv them a look. Sorry about your friend
