Seems like a silly question, who on earth is going to vote "FF"? Huh

In protest. This question is super obvious that anti-gay bullying is horrible, so I voted FF in protest to how stupid this topic is.

Exactly. I often vote that way in these FF/HP polls when I think the answer to a certain question is obvious. In this case, it's pretty evident that there is hardly anyone who approves of bullying people.

Bullies often don't think they are bullies. Some religiously motivated and loaded rhetoric can be considered bullying, but the bullies would never think otherwise.

I admit I haven't got a firm opinion on this, but I tend to believe that bullying happens consciously. I think in order to be considered a bully someone really has to be aware of the impact of his or her vicious words or actions. Of course, some things person A says can be interpeted as hurtful by person B, but as long as person A is not aware of B's reaction I would not speak of bullying.
