Distinctions in Sexual Orientation on the Web: Self-Portrayal and Contribution in Political Correspondence on Facebook

Abstract

This study investigates distinctions in sexual orientation as manifested through self-portrayal and participation in political discourse on Facebook. Using a sample of users from diverse sexual orientations, we analyze their profiles and engagement with political content to discern patterns and differences. Through textual and interactional analysis, we aim to understand how individuals of different sexual orientations present themselves online and engage with political topics. Our findings shed light on the nuances of online identity construction and political participation within the LGBTQ+ community, providing insights into the intersectionality of sexual orientation and digital communication. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for promoting inclusivity and understanding within online spaces and political discourse.
