Wonderful. This just gives the bullies more targets to pick out.
The most effective protest against bullying is, and always will be, punching the bully back.

I was never much of a fighter back in junior high, so I had my fair share of bullies, including one who tormented me constantly.
One day I was walking down a hallway after classes were over, and this bully walked up alongside of me and started harassing me again. I was already in a bad mood, and when he pushed me, I unleashed holy hell on him.
When they pulled me off, he was the one crying, not me.
He never bothered me again after that.

We didn’t have to wear pink to handle bullys when I was in school. Our knuckles were a little red at times though.

When my son was in Jr. High he was little. He came home and told me that there was this really big guy who grabbed little guys in the hall and hit them and wanted to know what he should do if the guy bothered him. I said, “Thump him.”
My son told me that if he did that he could get suspended or get detention and I told him that he had to make the choice himself.
It wasn’t long before the guy confronted my son and without a thought my son started hitting, he gave the guy a bloody nose, a fat lip and a black eye, I kid you not. Nobody told and nobody got in trouble but my son got a reputation of someone you don’t fool around with and the bully turned into a decent human being.

Ok, times have really changed. In Angels Camp(that is in CA, Calaveras county, gold country)about 1853, a miner wore a Red shirt, everyone harassed the he** out of him until finally he said to all in ear shot, "The next fool to say something about my shirt is going to get shot!". His best friend then came up threw back his head and laughed and said "Where in the he** did you get that shirt!", whereas the miner with the shirt drew his gun stuck it in his friends wide open mouth and fired. The judge dismissed the case because, the judge said," He warned everyone and his friend should have listened!". This is a true story and is on record in what used to be the country seat, Jackson CA, which is now a part of Amador county.
While this might seem a little extreme, the point is the kid should have taken on the bullies himself or had some friends help him. Crying to everyone about it is just plain cowardice IMO.
Wearing pink shirts will almost certainly make things worse, not better, and will certainly not have any effect on the bullies.

What a bunch of pansies. If me or one of my friends in school had worn pink it was a requirement that the offender was called a homo. And all of us were not bullies. But we did have the sense that the only way to stop a bully is to slug him.

If a kid wore pink when I was in school even the pacifist kids would have beat him up.

What's the opposite of pink? That's what my kids would wear.
