While both are damaging, girls are most definately the worst bullies. When in consideration, boys hit, but bruises and cuts heal in a week or two. Girls are emtional bullies, which causes mental wounds that can take years to heal and fix.

I think girls can be real [profane]es, I was bullied by girls at school, they love to be really nasty and do what they can to humiliate you in front of others. Boys don't seem to have this kind of viscious nature. I even have a woman at work like that who is 63, she thrives on [profane]ing

Never had any problems with being bullied by Dragon Ladies, hurt yes, but that was my own fault and a lesson in life. Never had much trouble with blokes either, if you can't beat em bribe em, it's silly to confront a persons strength, it's their weakness that is always their undoing, mine to.

Male and female can be equally abusive, the difference being in the type of abuse they inflict. I spent my entire childhood at the receiving end of boys & girls making my life a misery. Now I'm 30 and am still learning to deal with it. The education system has failed so many people.

Blokes tend to have a bash then forget it. Women have a tendency to bear grudges for eternity.

girls only have to scream and yell ,saying that they are being attacked to gain the full force of the police against a boy or man and her word will be taken as gospel leaving an innocent male to answer all sorts of intimidating questions.and most likely end up in deep trouble

I think girls are worst. I was bullied by two girls who pretended to be my friend which lasted for years. I left school at 15. I have only just got over the torment. You can get over a black eye but I think the emotional bullying is far worst.

Kurt Fearnley: I was relief teaching in Blayney when I met Kurt as a young school boy. The first thing that struck me was his smile and contagious positive outlook at all times. I see nothing has changed with this outstanding Australian. Although I never saw him again, it is a testament to the power of his personality that I have not forgotten him more than 15 years later.
