Please Stop Bullying LGBTQ+ Individuals

I’m a trans guy (Female to Male) currently in 10th grade, enrolled in all honors and AP classes. I also have several friends who are trans or non-binary and are in similar academic tracks. I mention this to highlight the type of environment we thrive in, not to brag.

Now for my message: To those who mock and bully trans people (and the entire LGBTQ+ community) — please stop. If you’re wondering whether you’ve been part of the problem, chances are you have. Just stop. This isn’t coming from a place of sensitivity or confusion. I’d like to hear a genuine reason for why you find it acceptable to harass us in the halls, trip us, throw paper at us, or hurl slurs our way. What have we done to deserve this? We haven’t treated you disrespectfully or thrown things at you.

Simply because we express ourselves in a way that might differ from societal norms doesn’t give you the right to bully us. Yes, it may seem like it boosts your popularity, but you might end up regretting those actions once you realize the harm you’ve caused.

Let’s work together to be part of the solution rather than adding to the problem. Please, do your part.

  1. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences. It’s incredibly important to speak out against bullying and discrimination, especially in schools where everyone should feel safe and accepted. The hurtful actions you describe—making fun of others for being who they are, throwing things, and using slurs—are completely unacceptable.

    It’s really disheartening to see people targeting others for expressing their identities, and there’s absolutely no justification for it. You’re right: no one deserves to face bullying for being true to themselves. The courage it takes to be open about your identity, especially at your age, is commendable.

    Those who choose to bully often do so out of ignorance or a desire to fit in, but that doesn’t excuse their behavior. It’s essential for everyone to recognize the impact their words and actions can have on others, and to strive for kindness instead of cruelty.

    Your message is a powerful reminder that we all have the ability to choose compassion over hatred. Let’s work together to create a more inclusive environment where everyone can feel valued and respected. Keep advocating for yourself and your friends—you deserve to be heard and supported.
