Some thanked Hulisani for standing up because they have had similar experiences.
Thank you Aus’Hulisani for the stand. I also grew up being teased & bullied because of my looks to a point that I started believing that I wasn’t a girl enough and that I’ll never look like one ever. Bullies must be dealt with!!
