AbstractResearch studies in the area of new media and “the globalization of sexual cultures” focus on the use of online technologies to facilitate dialogues that might have been dismissed, less tolerated and absent in everyday life (Berry et al. 2). Internet websites such as Gay Radio Hong Kong, Queer Sisters, Fridae.com and GdotTV attract online users from local cities, diasporic Chinese communities and individuals interested in sexual cultures within Asia region. As a participant of a Chinese online television station GdotTV and a researcher, I situate my study amidst complexities of “tacit knowing” (Smith 266). This paper investigates the linkages between online political strategies and everyday negotiations among active Internet content developers. I locate my line of query along how online web content implement political objectives to further one’s goal on civil rights and LGBT visibility in Hong Kong.
