This section showcases teens' thoughts about fitting in or being different - a difference in
race or ethnicity, class, gender or sexual identity, how you dress or in
other ways - and the stereotypes, teasing, bullying, hate crimes and other
problems that often result. All essays and poems are written by
teenagers.
