More specifically, we\u2019ll look at a recent study that carried out in-depth interviews with LGBTQI+ individuals starting university, and how social media allowed them to either <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">escape<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, integrate, or thrive as their authentic selves during these pertinent years.<\/span><\/p>\n<h1><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Is Social Media a Safe Place for LGBTQI+ Youngsters?<\/span><\/h1>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This is a loaded question, and there are many facets involved when answering. In fact, there is no correct answer, as indicated by a <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/doi\/10.1177\/1461444820981009\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">recent study<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It found that <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/gender-sexual-expansiveness\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">sexual and gender<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> minority students can benefit from the identity development and social connections via social media, but that monitoring these platforms to avoid any negative effects or harm can be exhausting.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This study, conducted by <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/journals.sagepub.com\/action\/doSearch?target=default&amp;ContribAuthorStored=Talbot%2C+Catherine+V\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Catherine Talbot<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, underwent an in-depth interview with 16 LGBTQI+ university students to find out how they ran their social media accounts, mainly Facebook, and their experience in terms of challenges and benefits.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>In it, four themes were discovered:<\/b><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Exploration<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Concealment<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Protection<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Expression<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Four Ways LGBTQI+ Youths Try to Reduce Discrimination and Embrace Their Emerging Identities On Social Media<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The aforementioned four themes tended to be used collectively by those interviewed in such a way to reduce discrimination and to embrace their emerging identities.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And because the 16 participants were in the beginning stages of their university years, social media tended to be a great space for some to finally maximise their newfound sense of freedom.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1. Exploring LGBTQI+ Identities<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most of these university students found that they could safely explore their emerging sexual identities in a way that felt authentic and comfortable. They also found that using social media allowed them to connect with and learn about the experiences of others in the LGBTQI+ community on campus and in their local community. They did this by sending friend requests to people and following LGBTQI+ Facebook pages specifically for their university. For those who felt that their university really provided visibility for LGBTQI+ individuals, positive feelings of being welcome were experienced, and gave them the chance to meet like-minded individuals. This provided an easier <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">transition<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> to university life for LGBTQI+ students.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2. Concealing LGBTQI+ Identities<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For students who felt they weren\u2019t ready to reveal their identity, or who weren\u2019t enthusiastic about divulging their gender identity in their new location, a lot of effort was needed. Some students created brand new social media accounts, and decided to make friends outside of the LGBTQI+ community as an attempt to not have their sexual identity be an issue. In this way, some students wanted to take on a \u201c<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">heterosexual<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201d appearance. Often, the students who concealed their identity did so because they felt that first impressions as their authentic self may reduce their chances of making new friends.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">3. Protection of LGBTQI+ Identities<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Despite the fact that many believed their new life as university students gave them the freedom to explore and proudly live their LGBTQI+ lives, some were apprehensive about it. There were some who had a fear that their old <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">friends<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and family members may discover their identity through social media. For those who <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">did<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> change their identity on social media upon arriving at university, many used filters and <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">privacy<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> settings in an attempt to control who was able to see certain information. These individuals described this as \u201cexhausting\u201d as it involved constant monitoring, and admitted to feeling unable to embrace their true identity.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4. Expression of LGBTQI+ Identities\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While this study predominantly looked at the social media platform Facebook, they too looked at others such as Tumblr and Twitter. It was found that many of those interviewed felt safer to express themselves on Tumblr and Twitter as opposed to Facebook because it gave them the freedom of anonymity. This was because Facebook offers a bigger chance to connect with family and friends, whereas the other social media platforms were easier to navigate with new people and groups.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The results of this study were quite simple: that the need to conceal one\u2019s identity required a lot of effort. The researchers therefore recommended that social media platform designers take this into consideration, and work towards developing more spaces that are LGBTQI+ <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lelo.com\/blog\/sexual-education-inclusive-discourse\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">inclusive<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and celebratory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>They also mentioned that experiencing a sense of belonging on campus is important for one\u2019s overall wellbeing, that universities should begin and continue to develop workshops on how to manage one\u2019s social media profiles, provide useful tips on social media platforms for those in the LGBTQI+ community, as well as how to best integrate into the community on campus.<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In other words, social media of course comes with its dangers and annoyances, but it can also be a great tool for LGBTQI+ youths to build stronger connections with their peers and their community. And providing even more resources can only expand on this safe space to really encourage youngsters to thrive, and allow them to communicate and work on social issues that are important to them.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Regardless of who is using it, social media can have positive and negative effects.
