A study conducted by researchers from NOVA Southeastern University explores the relationship between the use of dating apps and experiences of stigma within the gay community. The study found that more frequent use of dating apps was associated with more frequent experiences of intraminority stress, particularly related to age, socioeconomic status, race/ethnicity, and body size and shape. Older gay men and gay men of color were found to be especially likely to experience identity-based stigma from other gay men while using dating apps. These findings highlight the need for further research on the well-being of multiply marginalized gay men. [Extracted from the article] |
