The children’s book; “Bully” written by Judith Casely is sexist due to the excess of gender stereotyping, gender roles, and the loss and gain of voice although there is gender equality in the end of the story. There are several times when Judith Casely portrays the masculine roles. Boys are being aggressive towards each other; the boys that appear bigger often intimidate the tougher boys.

Summary The movie Bully by Lee Hirsch is an interesting take on the concept of bullying inside of an adolescent’s life. The main characters revolve around a couple of students who have faced much adversity throughout their time in school. Tyler, one of the people mentioned, was shown to have committed suicide due to the extent of the bullying that took place.
I think the political agenda in the documentary “Bully” was to show that suicide is an issue here in the United States. Kids are being bullied left and right and then getting punished if they choose to speak out about it, which probably has to do with why so many children who are bullied don’t speak up. Adults are deciding they should give the punishment to both kids because they claim they don’t know whose fault it was. A good example would be the kid who was bullied and called Fish Lips in the documentary. He had issues on the school bus, which is a really common area for bullying to take place.
