“Whether bullies consider themselves bullies can vary widely based on individual perspectives and self-awareness. Some bullies may not see their behavior as bullying; they might rationalize their actions as a way to assert dominance, fit in with peers, or cope with their own insecurities. They might view their behavior as normal or justified, especially if they have been exposed to similar behavior in their environment.”

“On the other hand, some individuals who engage in bullying may recognize their actions as harmful but feel powerless to change or may not care about the impact on others. In more reflective moments, some might acknowledge their behavior and feel guilt or shame.”

“Overall, the self-perception of bullies can be complex and influenced by various factors, including their upbringing, social environment, and personal experiences.” Quora
