Reply #62: "Sexual abuse?" Oh, Lordy.

Your assumption that the other gentleman is/was a bully is specious and unfounded.

Do you think I am/was a bully for taking the opposing side of this debate?

Let me end the speculation, and you can choose to believe me or not as you like.

I LOATHE bullies. Until I learned to fight back as a teenager, while a young lad I was a victim of bullying on more than a few occasions. And I'm not talking about my buddy giving me a Titty Twister in line at the deli, either.

I'm talking about REAL bullying, the kind that makes you ditch school rather than take a beating (because what's a note from Teacher versus a fist in the face or three at age 9?)

I have know way of knowing what your life experience is along these lines, but it seems to me you have a serious lack of perspective on this issue.

"Sexual abuse" my tuchus!
