Sexuality in India offers an expression of nationalist anxieties
and is a significant marker of modernity through which
subjectivities are formed among the middle class. This book
investigates the everyday experience of queer Indian men on digital
spaces. It explores how queer identities are formed in virtual
spaces and how the existence of such spaces challenge and critique
'Indian'-ness. It also looks at the role of class and intimacy
within the discourse. This work argues that new media, social
networking sites (SNSs), both web and mobile, and related
technologies do not exist in isolation; rather they are critically
embedded within other social spaces. Similarly, online queer spaces
exist parallel to and in conjunction with the larger queer movement
in the country. This book will be of great interest to scholars and
researchers of gender studies, especially men's and masculinity
studies, queer and LGBT studies, media and cultural studies,
particularly new media and digital culture, sexuality and identity,
politics, sociology and social anthropology, and South Asian
studies.
