- Exploring identity negotiation and self-expression of queer youth on social media
by Hanna Szabo
In this podcast episode, G-Versity early stage researcher, Hanna D. Szabó speaks about the community-building potential of social media, focusing on how Hungarian queer teenagers negotiate their identities and represent themselves online. Her research underlines that queer youth is well-equipped to leverage the power of social media to explore their sexual and gender identities, but this takes immense emotional labour, which is is further complicated by platform limitations and political realities.
