Abstract

A study was conducted to know and understand cyber violence, which differs from the post-Bulger partner, where he agrees to marriage. This was done by conducting a group of in-depth interviews to obtain answers about this phenomenon. Five women were exposed to this form of violence via WhatsApp messages. Whether through text messages, pictures, or private messages, Vietnamese women (aged between 20-45 years) volunteered to participate in this study.Through understanding and analyzing the contents of a group of these messages and pictures, the results showed that the most important contents of these messages or shameful pictures and messages focused on the threat to publish shameful pictures of the partner in first place, then the pictures and messages related to threats of death or harm, and finally the contents related to the shameful messages that contain flirtatious language. And the words are intimate. Women believe that the reason behind this phenomenon may be due to the weak moral conscience of those who practice this violence and the lack of fear of punishment. Because victims of this violence are afraid to file legal complaints for fear of social stigma. Women also expressed a feeling of resentment and fear. This requires conducting a number of studies on people who practice this type of violence.
