ABSTRACT
This conclusion presents some closing thoughts on the key concepts discussed in the preceding chapters of this book. The book makes a number of significant interventions within queer and digital media scholarship on India. It also sets out to sketch a social and media history of queer expressions in India. The Internet is used in various ways by queer males in India - for purposes of intimacy, support and social networking as well as offering new opportunities for political and social actions, thus forming a new kind of digital public sphere. The book explores the various examples of queer digital culture that are the responses from the community to the societal and cultural reactions. Whether they are queering mainstream spaces like Facebook, establishing user profiles on PlanetRomeo, accessing Grindr from their family room or using these spaces to mobilise people into going on protests, the users of digital culture are taking part in the process of visibility and representational politics.
