The present text is centered on the discourses and stereotypes produced by sciences on men and women who either practice or are bullying victims. So, by a theoretical apprehension of the power phenomenon at workplaces, it is discussed the possibility of a critical reflection allowing the displacement of non-moral conducts practice still present in the job market, within the pathologization normative territory and the adaptation of the subject. Reflections are made to try to understand how psi practices make use of old methods for social control of the bodies in the social circle. In this regard and from a psychosocial standpoint, the text is focused on the fact that bullying is not referred to as an “anti-social” individual conduct, but instead, it is related to individual, group, organizational and social conditioning. So, based on this positioning, we show that bullying still has other specificities that need viewing, due to the stereotyped genders produced, especially by the academic circle, what contributes to the crystallization of male and female characteristics in relation to this phenomenon. Within this context, we try to reinterpret the essentialism, the so-called male or female practices that bring forth negative consequences in the job market and make it difficult to bring about the equality of men and women.
