School can be as traumatizing as any battlefield.

the most cringe-worthy moment from your high school days probably doesn't compare to the humiliation felt by one freshman male

in Nova Scotia, who dared to wear a pink shirt on the first day of school last year.

The poor boy paid dearly

two seniors were sick of the abuse – so they came up with a plan

"Kids don't need this in their lives, worrying about what to wear to school,"

"That should be the last thing on their minds."

the two boys came to school armed with a pile of 75 pink tank tops, which they handed out to all of the male students to wear

more students showed up wearing something pink

around half of the school's 830 students put on something pink in solidarity.

it's led to an official Anti-Bullying Day

students are encouraged to dress in pink to show acceptance of their fellow students, proving that there's nothing wrong with showing your true colors after all.
