As a cis male, one way to do this is to represent yourself as female, and see how much more you get questioned. You don't have to go so far as to cross-dress -- you could simply sign an email with a majority-female name in the signature.
I want to see an actual study, because my anecdata doesn’t match the claimed experience.
Yes, if we distort bullying out of all sense to just mean "different treatment"...
In that sense, a rich person who receives more attention, the best seats in the house, VIP treatment where they go, are also "bullied".
First of all, this is a different demographic. Second, workplaces have a totally different dynamic.
From that position you can then try to practice active listening. You’d need to develop a rapport with people—lots of people, both people who see things similarly to you and especially people who see things differently. You’d have to be gentle with other people’s ideas so they feel safe telling you what they really think.
After doing that for some time, and ingesting stories from whole populations of people, you would begin to get a sense of the breadth of experiences beyond your own.
