True According to the Olweus Bullying Questionnaire results, this is what you reported to the following question: “Ways of being bullied, for students who reported being bullied ‘2-3 times a month’ or more”:

Ways of Being Bullied – Questionnaire Results Why do you think there are differences between boys and girls in the areas of “rumors” and “exclusion” for the ways of being bullied? Note that these forms of bullying are also knows as “relational bullying”. Why do you think there are differences between boys and girls in the area of “racial” as another way of being bullied? Feel free to view the graph again to see your questionnaire results.

Statement 6 6.) Boys only bully other boys. They hardly ever bully girls. False Although boys are usually bullied by other boys, girls are bullied by both boys AND girls. The next slide shows our questionnaire results for the ways that bullied students are being bullied by others:

Girls are more likely than boys to tell teachers or a parent if they are being bullied. – True According to the Olweus Bullying Questionnaire results, this is what you reported to the following question: “Percentage (and number) of bullied students who have told a teacher or another adult at school about the bullying”: 6 – 8th Grades Girls 40.0% (12) Boys 44.8% (13) Girls and Boys 42.4% (25)

Percentage (and number) of students who responded ‘feel a bit sorry’ or ‘feel sorry and want to help’ when they see a student being bullied at school.”

To review…. There are important similarities and differences in the attitudes and behaviors of boys and girls when it comes to bullying. In order to try to reduce bullying in our school, it is important to understand and pay attention to these. It also is important to understand how gender can be used to bully – such as by using gender-related put-downs. Let’s encourage each other not to use these, as they harm all of us. Does anyone have any other questions or comments? Please feel free to share them at this time.

Current Events Related to Bullying Recently in the news, the CEO of Abercrombie & Fitch, is coming under fire for remarks he made during an interview in May 2006. Mike Jeffries, CEO of A & F, made the following comment, “In every school there are the cool and popular kids, and then there are the not-so-cool kids. Candidly, we go after the cool kids. We go after the attractive all-American kid with a great attitude and a lot of friends. A lot of people don’t belong [in our clothes], and they can’t belong. Are we exclusionary? Absolutely,” he said. Here are some facts about Abercrombie & Fitch clothes: they do NOT make women’s clothing larger than a size 10, but they DO make guys clothing in sizes XL and XXL – why?
