Back in Highschool, all her friends used to bully her at first, but later on, the bullying turned into violence as her schoolmates beat her up for wearing dresses that apparently were designed for boys.
Winona Ryder explained,“I was wearing a Salvation Army boy’s T-shirt. As I was going to the bathroom, I heard someone yell, ‘Hey, fa***t!’ Then they slammed my head into a locker, I fell to the ground and they started kicking me. They had to give me stitches.”
Then later on after she became successful she had the chance to redeem herself. She shared, “I walked into a coffee shop in Petaluma and ran into one of the girls who kicked me. She said, ‘Winona, Winona, can I have your autograph,’ and I said, ‘Don’t you remember me? I went to Kenilworth. Remember in seventh grade when you beat up a girl?’ “She said, ‘Sort of,’ and I said, ‘That was me. F*** you.’.”
