Just adding to your point. The type of bullying circling received at the hands of boys is male socialization. Males who don't fit male sexist stereotypes well enough will often get bullied for it.

Yes, I am so sick of trans-identified males saying that they experienced & experience the same bullying & misogyny that girls & women get. Even many "GC" trans-identified males who are otherwise reasonable & who acknowledge that their sex is different to our sex still constantly insist that their experience is just like ours, or more similar to our experience than it is different. IMO, this reflects a type of myopia, self-centeredness & arrogance that is very reflective of male socialization.
