THE SECRET GAY HISTORY OF THE MORN TER
The fact that GeoCi was created by a gay man is not a footnote — ’s a headle. And ’s one more piece of evince that peopl’ need for inty and nnectn n lead to credible thgs. * the internet is gay *
The astcture of the Inter and limed available technology the 1990s fostered anonymy by flt, providg unique opportuni for gay and bisexual men to make nnectns onle the privacy of their hom, at all hours of the day (Benotsch et al., 2002). In short, this virtual environment was revolutnary (Bull & McFarlane, 2000; Fris, 1998; Klsner, Wolf, Fischer-Ponce, Zolt, & Katz, 2000) to the Inter, the ma ways which gay and bisexual men socialized was through gay bars and clubs and muny groups/centers, as well as public sex venu: adult bookstor, bathho, and cisg parks or bathrooms (Frankis & Flowers, 2009; Humphreys, 1975; Shilts, 1987). In ntrast, the Inter emerged as a space that was available 24 hours a day (unlike bars/clubs), through which ers uld teract wh others whout revealg their full inty (Werich, 1997) gay and bisexual men, the 1990s marked parallel growth cybersex/cyberfantasy (i.
Qualative retrospective acunts om gay men terviewed 2001 noted that, for some men, excsive time spent cisg for sex partners onle uld lead to negative out one's person's life (Grov et al., 2008). Rearchers at the time noted that gay and bisexual men engaged cyberfantasy as well as ed the Inter to meet sex partners real life (Gthier & Forsyth, 1999; Klsner et al., 2000; Shaw, 1997; Tikkanen & Ross, 2000).
CNCHGOV ESSENTIAL: HOW THE INTER HELPED GAY AMERI COME OUT OF THE CLOSET
* the internet is gay *
The advanc fueled a broar adoptn of Inter e among gay and bisexual men and troduced opportuni for the creatn of s terg to different muni whout beg subjected to oversight and regulatn herent workg wh large-sle onle muni (e. This ongog rearch quickly helped rearchers regnize that the Inter's accsibily, affordabily, anonymy and acceptabily uld help ongog efforts to unrstand gay and bisexual men's sexualy (Mtanski, 2001; Pequegnat et al., 2007). This may have rulted om the fact that there are substantially fewer gay and bisexual men pared to heterosexuals the general populatn, which creased the likelihood of enunterg another gay or bisexual man offle venu.
GAY AND BISEXUAL MEN'S E OF THE INTER: REARCH OM THE 1990S THROUGH 2013
Th, beme clear that the Inter had quickly tablished self as the modal venue through which to meet sex the early 2000s, many of methodologil advanc g the Inter for rearch were driven by public health rearchers' needs to unrstand and addrs the HIV/STI outbreaks observed among gay and bisexual men who had met sexual partners chat rooms (Centers for Disease Control and Preventn, 2003; Klsner et al., 2000). Intifyg the Inter as a ‘morn bathhoe, ’ rearchers placed creasg attentn on gay and bisexual men's onle teractns and their relatnships to sexual risk behavrs associated wh HIV/STI fectn (Chen, Gibson, Wei, & McFarland, 2003). In addn to this affordance, rearchers posed addnal explanatns for creased risk, cludg that men seekg partners onle were also more likely than gay and bisexual men who met partners face-to-face to e illic substanc (Mettey, Crosby, DiClemente, & Holtgrave, 2003b), have sual sex partners (Kim, 2001; Taylor et al., 2004), be sexually pulsive (Chaney & Dew, 2003; Cooper, 2000), have a history of STIs (Elford, 2000), or have had unprotected sex wh one or more partners of an unknown or disrdant HIV stat (Harterk, Hoek, Hospers, & Veenstra, 2002; Li et al., 2006).
Alongsi the explanatns, an emergg body of lerature also began to document gay and bisexual men's cisns to engage unprotected sex HIV-risk ntexts (barebackg) when meetg partners onle (Carballo-Diéguez & Bermeister, 2004; Grov, 2004; Halkis & Parsons, 2003). Studi noted that gay and bisexual men sought out sexual health rmatn onle when they need (Boldg et al., 2004; Rietmeijer et al., 2003), and reported willgns to participate HIV/STI preventn through chat rooms, email, and webs (Bull et al., 2001b).
The limatns would bee challeng to tackle durg the sign of onle terventns as well as formative rearch the followg years to e (Chiasson et al., 2006; Pequegnat et al., 2007) Inter and Sex, 2005-2009As the send half of the first of the 21st century progrsed, the Inter ntued to tegrate self to the daily liv of young and adult gay and bisexual men, so much so that the “shift” to digal muni was implited as leadg to the cle of physil gay muni (i. Young gay and bisexual men particular reported high levels of daily Inter e (Mtanski, Lyons, & Garcia, 2011a), and gay and bisexual men reported g the Inter for multiple purpos related to sexual health, cludg makg nnectns wh the LGBT muny, seekg sexual health rmatn, and meetg partners for datg or havg sex (Bermeister, Llie-Santana, Johns, Pgel, & Eisenberg, 2011; Boldg et al., 2007; Dehaan, Kuper, Magee, Bigelow, & Mtanski, 2012; Garofalo, Herrick, Mtanski, & Donenberg, 2007; Kubicek, Carpeto, McDavt, Weiss, & Kipke, 2011; Magee, Bigelow, Dehaan, & Mtanski, 2012; Mtanski et al., 2011a; Pgel, Bermeister, Johns, Eisenberg, & Llie-Santana, 2013; Wilkerson, Smolenski, Horvath, Danilenko, & Simon Rosser, 2010).
THE PROCS OF NTEMPORARY GAY INTY VELOPMENT CHA: THE FLUENCE OF TER E
Acrdgly, the later 2000s saw a rise rearch on gay and bisexual men's e of the Inter to seek sexual health rmatn, and both quantative and mixed methods rearch dited that young and adult gay and bisexual men equently ed the Inter for this purpose (Eisenberg, Bermeister, Pgel, Johns, & Llie-Santana, 2011; Kubicek et al., 2011; Magee et al., 2012; Wilkerson et al., 2010). Instead, young and adult gay and bisexual men who have a history of engagg sexual risk behavr may e the Inter as an efficient means to fd partners wh whom to engage unprotected acts (Bermeister et al., 2011; Downg, 2012; Garofalo et al., 2007; Horvath et al., 2008b; Mtanski, 2007a; Ogilvie et al., 2008).
This reprented a dramatic shift our unrstandg of the role of the Inter the sexual behavrs of gay and bisexual prevly mentned, methodologil limatns the lerature may further expla the nsistenci of the fdgs. As such, meetg sexual partners onle may be associated wh ls risky sexual behavr for certa groups of gay and bisexual noted, rearch utilizg the Inter for participant recment, survey admistratn and terventn livery creased rapidly durg the first of the 21st century. Furthermore, spe ial ncerns that retentn rat were low wh onle sampl (Bull et al., 2001a), onle sexual diary studi have reported high pletn rat (Mtanski, 2007a; Newb & Mtanski, 2013) and have been able to rec racially diverse sampl (Boone et al., 2012; Newb & Mtanski, 2013) total, rearch to the later 2000s tablished that gay and bisexual men uld be retaed longudal onle asssments and terventns (Bowen, Williams, Daniel, & Clayton, 2008; Hightow-Weidman et al., 2012; Mtanski, Garofalo, Monahan, Gratzer, & Andrews, In Prs) cludg those targetg racial mory men, ral men, non-gay/bisexual intified MSM, gay and bisexual men who are not ‘out, ’ and recg participants om HIV ttg clics to enroll onle terventns (Bowen, Horvath, & Williams, 2007; Bowen et al., 2008; Rhos et al., 2010; Saxton, Dickson, & Hugh, 2013).
