Gah, high school. There is absolutely nothing worse in the world than a teenage girl - honestly. Boys are perhaps more physically violent, but IMHO the emotional scars girls inflict on one another last far longer than any bruises or broken bones the guys get. The sick thing is that, for the most part, there's nothing that can be done. My little sister had a friend that was being tormented ruthlessly, through the internet as well as in class, about various things (her weight among them, which ended up largely contributing to her becoming anorexic) - and the school's reaction was pretty much "They're just girls!"

Bastards. High school is a horrible place.

the closest experience I had to that was in elementary school; high school actually pulled me out of my shell. same with lurkerlynn actually, we talk about it a bit towards the bottom of the comments

I didn't have too bad an experience in high school; I stayed under the radar. My middle school and elementary school experiences were something else entirely though. I was the one that wasn't allowed to wear makeup or shave my legs, and up until senior year of high school I was a little on the portly side, so...yeah. Ugh. I never had anything like those in the post you linked, but reading them? Didn't surprise me at all. They were horrible, but it's par for the course. Middle school especially is pretty much the most cruel wide-spread means of enforcing conformity you will ever, ever see.
