Abstract

ABSTRACT Research shows that gay men are highly susceptible to media effects on body image. A considerable amount of attention has been dedicated to the traditional media content that might have a negative effect on the way gay men perceive their bodies. However, far less attention has been given to the potentially harmful body-related content gay men are exposed to on the Internet. The present study is the first systematic content analysis of body-related posts gay men create and are exposed to on non-dating online social platforms. We analyzed the textual and visual elements of gay men’s body-related posts (N = 600) across four social media platforms popular among gay men to examine what and how gay men disclose about their bodies.
男同性恋如何在网上讨论自己的身体
研究表明,男同性恋者很容易受到媒体对其身体形象的影响。传统媒体的内容可能会对男同性恋者看待自己身体的方式产生负面影响,这引起了相当多的关注。然而,同性恋者在互联网上接触到的与身体有关的潜在有害内容却很少受到关注。目前的研究首次系统地分析了男同性恋者在非约会网络社交平台上发布和接触的与身体有关的帖子。我们分析了男同性恋者在四个受男同性恋者欢迎的社交媒体平台上发布的与身体有关的帖子(N = 600)的文字和视觉元素,以研究男同性恋者披露自己身体的内容和方式。
