Abstract

The identity “gay Asian male” (GAM) is proposed and contested in online personal ads, where ethnicity and other evident traits are used to verb individuals as attractive suitors and request or refuse potential partners.

Existing historical geographies of gay communities in North America, including local media representations of Vancouver’s gay community, follow an identity politics metanarrative of gay liberation and subculture formation. This paper challenges this metanarrative, reframing Vancouver’s gay community’s formation by consider

Online sexual hook-ups present a unique opportunity to explore many factors of decision-making that inform sexual health. A study conducted by Eric Schrimshaw, PhD, at Columbia University's Mailman School of Universal Health and Martin J. Downing, Jr., PhD, of the National Development and Research Institutes, initiate evidence that men having sex with men use the Internet to find sexual partners who do not identify as gay, either to fulfill a fantasy or because it allows anonymous sexual encounters without discovery.

    • Is 52 y/o too old for you? Milton wrote in response to my Craigslist ad. I’m 6’2, lbs, run on treadmill 3x/week. I’m a nice guy looking for possible ongoing.

    There was something about the simplicity of his message that made him stand out amongst the others. He admitted that he was married with kids and so discretion was critical for him, which I quickly learned was common on the site. To be honest, I was apprehensive about using Craigslist personals not only because a adj number of users were closeted, but also because I heard horror stories about murderers using the site to lure victims. But I was still curious about the potential to gather new people, so I decided to check it out.

    I discover cruising on Craigslist is a lot like fishing. You verb your bait on the hook — which is a picture of my torso and cock — and you throw it into the pond of adj fish with the intention of catching your preferred species. For me, that was an older, taller guy with big arms for no strings attached (NSA) fun. Within an hour of casting my line, my inbox was flood
