| book description |

Intersectional Intimacy: Identity Work of Racialized Women in Online Dating Cultures is the first book to examine both shared and divergent stories from those who identify as women with race-related experiences navigating online dating cultures, and to explore how their experience of intimate relationships is mediated by the apps. While many women turn to dating apps in search of intimacies, their navigations are continuously mediated and challenged by hierarchies of race, gender, class, and sexuality embedded in online dating cultures. This book traces the ongoing and layered processes through which racialized women develop their stories of online intimacies by making use of their identities and further cultivate their subjectivities. It also addresses the global dimensions of these practices, illustrating how global and local power structures intersect with personal experience, afforded by the popularity of dating apps, and how these readings change with their mobility. Intersectional Intimacy will be an essential text for students of Gender Studies, Sociology, and Politics, as well as those interested in Race, Media Studies, Digital Culture, and Communications.
