If you're getting bullied for that you'd be getting bullied anyway. Bullies don't find a reason like that then bully you. They get the impulse to bully you then find the reasons to attack you.

No, they have the impulse to bully someone and then go find someone to pick on. Much of what teens do is about desperately trying to avoid being the obvious target.
