Two years ago when I was in grade 8 some grade 9 guy would say my name in a sexual manner when he came near me, he pet my head once while saying my name in a sexual manner and i laughed in embarassment and i laugh when i am very uncomfortable. There was another time in class with the teacher there and we had to stand on our seats and he started to slide his hand up leg to my inner thigh while saying my name sexually and until the teacher told him to stop talking. All i wanted to do was punch him in the face but everyone thought what he was doing was funny and he had alot of friends and they were rather violent and vengeful like him so I didn't do anything. His actions made me very uncomfortable but im a guy and i would be humiliated to tell anyone becuause i would just be called gay for letting him do it and telling would be humiliating. What would you have done.

This was definitely sexual harrassment. Doesn't matter whether it was guy on guy, girl on girl, guy on girl, or girl on guy. The best case scenario would have been to report this slug, because if he was doing it to you, you can bet you weren't his only victim. That said however, I'm afraid I have to admit that I probably wouldn't have said anything either. Fear and intimidation are powerful weapons, and we too often hope that if we just ignore it it will go away.

Yes, that's sexual harassment. You should have told a teacher or the principal that the guy wouldn't stop touching you or leave you alone, and that it bothered you. They probably would have called it bullying, rather than sexual harassment, but he would have been punished.

You *could* bring some brass knuckles to school, and punch this clown in the 'nads the next time he does something like that to you...of course, you'd get suspended, but he would be in agony, and would never even THINK about doing that again... ;-)

Nobody will think that you are gay if you tell someone... He was harassing you, and I think that you should tell a teacher or someone you trust who can do something about it. He needs to be stopped. Please do something. Don't let him push you around and walk all over you. If you do nothing, then he wins. Good Luck!

I would have knocked the #%^&*^^%%$ out of him in front of everybody. Forget about thinking what he would do, because if you would knock the crap out of his balls that one time, beleive me he would never have messed with you again. People like him really have low self esteem, his was testing you to see how far he can go, that's all.
