On a separate note though I really refute this idea that people should shy away from doing 'different' things so as to avoid 'bullying', do people not see how counterproductive and damaging that notion actually is? That just perpetuates the problem because it doesn't bring the issues to the fore and normalise them. The more something is done the more people become used to it and it is no longer seen as 'abnormal', therefore it's not really something that can be used by bullies. The longer people decide to prevent themselves or others from doing things they think might be used against them, the more bullies win and that solves nothing

If everyone who thought like that decided to wise up and go ahead with what they were shying away from in the first place then such issues would be dealt with a lot quicker
