At school, I'm called gay. Guys spank my butt. Mainly in first hour in the locker room. What can I do without fighting or telling an authorities? I just want them to stop.

Tell them stop. Say something like "You call me gay but your touching my ass". If that doesn't work, tell a teacher.

well you can tell them anyway. That is, if you don't care.
Now if you care, just slip that part. Say "you touch my ass and i'm the gay here? yeah, right" or something like that.

Really sorry to hear that people harrass you because of your sexuality. Some people are really stupdi that way, but you got to realize you cant please everyone. Just try to let them know that it really dont bother you, even thought you know it does but if they think that you really dont care about what they think, they wont try to get to you so much.

You just have to tell them off and stand up to them. If they confront you, you need to be the one who hits first. Ram your forehead into the guy's nose, if your lucky and you break it he will never fuck with you again. I've never done this, but I know that when you break a person's nose they don't mess with you. And, if you bash your head against his then people think you're hardcore. They won't bother you again.

I'd advise not hitting anyone first. If they're low enough to tell an admin, you're screwed. You could get suspended.

The only problem with physical harassment I had in school, I ended by flipping a guy over my back, over a desk, onto the floor. But violence isn't always the answer. In high school, I found wit, sarcasm, and an ability to crush people with words did the trick.

That's probably a better route. But some people don't have the courage to insult some one. In my school, if you said anything that might've sounded like an insult you were asked to fight. Then, in the fight, people would push each other and then grab a hold of each other. If one was stronger or bigger they'd have a field day of pounding the younger/smaller person.

i got picked on the same way, but the older i got the less it seemed to happen. elementary school was mericless but my last few years of highschool and college were great. i think there are 2 contributing factors: lack of pot. yes the people are miserable being there because they arent getting high or laid enough and therefore just mean, and 2) the people that just simply arent cut out for all this education stuff.

I disagree with the other posters. I don't think pointing out the logical fallacy of calling you gay, and then touching your butt, will help at all.

They aren't logical to begin with. The artificial school societal food chain isn't logical.

For whatever reason, you're on the bottom (no pun intended) of the food chain in that period, and unfortunately, our schools are set up so that the bottom of the chain gets harassed constantly.

Telling them to stop certainly won't help.

Your choices:

1. Avoid them.
2. Tell on them.
3. Fight them.
4. Endure it.

If it's any consolation, the school society system is completely artificial, and means exactly nothing. Also, as bad as it seems now, it doesn't last that long. The thing to do is endure it the best you can without getting too emotionally scarred.

My advice would be to develop some inner confidence and peace. The tendency at your age is to blame yourself: "what about me makes them pick on me? Why do they call me gay? What can I do to make them stop?"

Those are the wrong questions. The problem lies with them, and with the system.

They pick on you because they think it makes them seem to be higher on the coolness food chain.

You are at the bottom, probably because you have been paying attention to other things besides the artificial school food chain (basically you pay attention to things a real human would pay attention to, but our schools aren't designed for that).

If somehow you could get some distance, understand the problem is with them and not you, and have some peace and confidence in yourself, it would help. First, you wouldn't mind the harassment so much, and second, they might let up a bit. Subconsciously, maybe they will sense your inner strength.

Also, find some friends. First period seems awful when there's no one to talk to in second period; not so bad when there's an understanding friend waiting...

I would simply ask them why they have such a fascination with gay guys. Then offer your services so they can finally figure out if they are.

If you take away their power, they will back down

Good idea! They're most likely afraid of gays!
