Abstract

In this study we aim to define what is meant by bullying a cruel behavior, intrinsic in interpersonal relationships, in which the strongest person converts the most fragile in objects of fun and enjoyment. We has researched the cyberbullying in order to try to understand the practice of this type of crime in a virtual environment at the leisure-time of students. The study presented below was based on the documental research, supported by a critical review of the literature. Among the various ways in which occurs the cyberbullying, were selected communities in the social networking site Orkut. In the analysis, we have discussed the ways in which members of these communities practice in their free time the cyberbullying. The body is the major focus of the aggressions, whereby physical education classes reproduce the context that favors them, but it may also help in the cause and awareness about the problem. However, this deviant behavior in cyberbullying is part of whole cultural and social contexts of individuals.
