An examination of dating app culture in China, across user
demographics--straight women, straight men, queer women, and queer
men. In this exploration of dating app culture in China, Lik Sam
Chan argues that these popular mobile apps are not merely a
platform for personal relationships but also an emerging arena for
gender and queer politics. Chan examines the opportunities dating
apps present for women's empowerment and men's performances of
masculinity, and he links experiences of queer dating app users
with their vulnerable position as sexual minorities. He finds that
dating apps are both portals to an exciting virtual world of
relational possibilities and sites of power dynamics that reflect
the heteronormativity and patriarchy of Chinese society.
