The aim of this study was to analyze the association between the masculine gender role conflict and school bullying. The sample was made up of 786 Spanish adolescents boys, aged 12 to 17 years (M = 14.5, SD = 1.58). Three groups of adolescents boys were distinguished according with their experimentation of the gender role conflict: high, average and low. The results of the ANOVAS indicated that the construct of gender role conflict and their conflict patterns were related to the different forms of school bullying and victimization. Bullying seems to be configured as a response to the fail in adhering the restrictive gender roles and also a way of punish peers who do not adhere these restrictive roles.
