| Middle schoolers - they like to be weird and make noises and do embarrasing or stupid things. |

Teen boys are dumb. It’s really nothing.
And teen girls are dumb too |
I've already posted the same. Just kids being dumb. Don't overthink this. |
| I agree this falls under “kids are weird”. I’m also not sure it’s a phenomenon limited to teens. One of my favorite memories was taking my 2 year old daughter to visit another family’s house where their 6 year old son was pretending to be a dog – crawling around on all fours, barking, and so on. It went on long enough to begin to feel annoying to me. But then my daughter leaned over and whispered in my ear, “Daddy, I LOVE him.” I asked if she wanted to say hi to the boy, so she walked over and sat next to him and said “hi”. It completely threw the boy off and he was quiet for the rest of our visit. |

Barking is not just weird. It’s so pathetic that mothers of sons are acting like the more reasonable explanation of this boy feeling entitled to insult this girl is impossible.
Girls aren’t “sluts.” Were none of you actual girls? |
Your story is adorable! But it’s not likely the reason a teen did this. |
I have a teen boy and as a woman who was once a girl and a decent human being I would never refer to anyone as a slut, much less a teen girl. That's despicable and wrong on so many levels. It just speaks to their hatred of women and girls. But please don't think that every boy who does something dumb like bark is doing it to insult a girl. They are kids and do dumb shit. If I heard my son barking at a girl, I'd tell him to never to do that again and that it's not acceptable, of course. But it's really not that deep. |
Why are you talking about girls ripping their clothes off if you think it’s a weird direction to go? Nobody said that except you. Freak |
"Just a Gdawg saying hi to a cute kitten?" That came up in a search of recent trends. If the girl likes the guy back, she is supposed to purr. |
DP, get help. Seriously. |
+1 why would PP even SAY such a thing?! So weird! |
I know I’m an old when this kind of stuff isn’t eliciting “oh these kids with their flirtation rituals,” but rather “how stupid.” |
Well if it helps, sometimes trends are "how stupid" to people of all ages, not just older people. Many of the recent trends in the last couple decades tend to be derided by millennials and zoomers with any sense. |

I got barked at with some regularity when I was in high school but i think it was more common to call unattractive girls "dogs" back in the day.

Yeah, that's kinda old meaning. These days it seems to mean the opposite. |
