Persuasive Essay About Bullying

In the essay, “Sociology of Leopard Man”, Logan Feys talks about conformation and how people are being affected by it. The author introduces the idea of changing your feelings, looks, beliefs, or actions in order to fit in with a group. My opinion is that it is not a good idea. I believe that changing your personality is fine if you are doing it because you want to do it. If you are changing because other people in society are doing it, then I would say that it is wrong. They may be wanting to change because they want to be viewed by society as normal. Society forces individual people to conform to their beliefs. This is affecting people’s lives as it gives them more to think about when they are in public as they are worrying about what others think.

Bullying has been a crime for many years, yet what exactly are we doing to stop it? The most dangerous type of bullying is physical bullying.

People at a young age start to feel as if they need to belong in a group or “gang” and 9 times out of ten one of those group members tell you to change something about yourself in order for you to join in.

It would be a good idea to change your feelings, looks, beliefs, or actions because you could have friends just like you, you can be different but be yourself. It may be safer, or better to be a conformist because you can fit in and no one will make fun of you or judge you if you fit in. If you would want to change your beliefs that would be a big change, but if that's what you want to do that's ok but just know you're changing on what you believe in. The dangers of conforming could be trouble because maybe you start to change your body and looks so that would mean it would be much harder to get a job. Their are pros and cons to changing yourself the pros may sound better but they're not. Like look at Leopard Man, well if you don’t know Leopard

Think of it no one is normal in this world no matter what they do, or say. In everybody’s personal view normal is plain or just the expected. In my opinion i really don’t think normal is really worth it. Look how society has become they listen to different genres of music, they eat different foods, everyone is a different race, they have different values, and think differently from everyone else. Ya it is great to fit in, but why not try to be yourself. Who cares what people think about another's character/ personality. I remember when all i wanted to was just be friends with everybody but, most of them pushed me away picked on me and didn’t anything to do with me, but there are people out there are people out who do want to meet new people and discover who you are and accept you for you. There is no reason to go out look for a group and try to fit

When that person grows up and they look back on their actions they will be ashamed of how terrible they were. Yes, it is small, but it still will have a big impact on their life. Normally, when someone bullies another person it is because they have issues of their own. According to Ditch the Label, “Our data shows that those who bully are far more likely than average to have experienced a stressful or traumatic situation in the past five years”. This evidence explains that bullies do not always bully people because of their appearance, but sometimes because that is what they are used to. That is sometimes how they are treated at home, so they think it is justifiable to treat other people the same way. Sometimes, this causes others to take their own lives. Some people may argue that it does not matter what one’s home life is like. It is still not justifiable to treat other people like they are of a lower social standing. While this could be agreed upon, if bullying is to be stopped at school, bullying must stop at home first. Everyone deserves loving parents and a loving family, but not everyone gets that. Bullying is not only a school issue and if bullying is stopped, the suicide rate will ultimately lower.

I stood up and I watched the people eyes filled with tears and the environment impregnated with cry of mothers, fathers, cousins and relatives while I looked in awe and shamed, this was the same guy that tried to start a conversation with me three weeks ago that I ignored because other people labeled him a wanker and a weirdo. I had nothing against him after all its not a crime to be selective in choosing one’s friends so why should I neglect that moral logic and principle and moreover talking to him will lead to a drop in my reputation of being the coolest kid in high school. But standing close to the ground where is body is about to be laid, I realized that a crime is not punishable only when an individual commits it

Many people undergo some form of pressure to change who they are in order to fit in, which has occurred all throughout history. However, it is important to stay true to yourself and defy the pressure of others to be “normal”. Moreover, the pressure to fit into society can have harsh consequences in the future that will not be worth it in the long run. From modern times to back in history, people of all ages, races, and backgrounds are forced to change themselves in one form or another, which inevitably has a horrific outcome.
