Okay so I filmed a video but I don't know if I want to post it. So I am going to write a blog post and see if I want to still post it tomorrow, or make a new video. So I am going to write about something that annoys me.
I have never been cyber bullied, but I have been picked on by people. The worst is when they are much much older than you, I'm talking 50 +. This is difficult because you can't really do anything (especially because I was young when it happened), and I take it this is the problem with cyber bullying. You can't comment to someone "Hey knock it off" and expect them to be intimidated, but when someone insults someone else over the web they can have an effect. This has to be remembered when you comment on something, because if you say something, even if it's on a picture of a skinny girl saying "She has to eat more." I, as a skinny girl, have had this happen, and it hurts as much as insulting an overweight girl by saying "You should eat less."
Think, don't comment on someone's weight. It's none of your business, and don't just think because a girl is skinny that she has all the self confidence in the world. Your words do matter, to anyone. Everyone has confidence issues, everyone has body image issues, don't make it worse by pointing out something new.
So let's all make a pledge to not insult anyone else, to just stay quiet and smile. Remember, your words can make a difference.
