Its a rude awakening when an adult behaves in less than appropriate manner and bullies people.
Have i experienced it? YES- BUT, having lived and experienced many things, i dont take things sitting down anymore. What i do is let things slide, try diplomacy, attempt nice chat, and if that doesnt work, i go for their jugulars and make it known that i am not a punching bag and go pick on someone else-preferably at a bar.
Being nice is not going to make people like you anymore. Period. I learned that many years ago. Its my nature to be nice, but i can be pushed over the edge just like the next person.
Try a little tenderness and then tell them to knock the s@#$ off.
Just some basic advise. For what its worth.

Dude, you make it sound like you almost like it and are totally defenseless.
STOP THAT.
YOU can start a trend that makes it quite clear there will be no bullying.
You need to get tough. No offense, but i can see just by your words here that you need to toughen up.
Eat an owl or something.
I'm not laughing at you, i'm trying to make you see that you need to develop thicker skin.

Yep i sure have, it takes it toll, and eventually they do get to you. It took many years.
I thought kids in primary school were bad, but adults can be far more worse. Sexual haressment is about intimidation, and males who go through it, cannot talk about it. Its just laughed of because males are supposed to be obsessed with females and supposed to love all that rubbish. But what if your not and its a way to intimidate you.
If i said i was assaulted by females people would just laugh and say grow up, but if like for example two males did to a women what 2 females did to me in 1 instance while i was working, they would be charged with sexual assault. I left that job, and they were worried i would sue for sexual haressment, but i just wanted to get away from them.
I suppose thats what i get for having a victims mindset.
