    Abstract

    Carlson (Journal of Sociology 56:133–150, 2020) argues that dating apps are not ‘neutral’ spaces and do not exist outside of broader power dynamics of violence and control. Currently, there is limited but emergent research which engages in the complex intersections of Indigenous gender, sex, and sexually diverse populations who experience unique and compounding forms of violence and discrimination online. This chapter will explore intersections of race, indigeneity, gender, sex, and sexuality as complex matrices in which LGBTIQ+ (lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, intersex, and queer) Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples are subjected to settler colonial desires, discrimination, and online violence on dating and hook-up apps such as Grindr and Tinder. This chapter amplifies community informed representations which provides a glimpse into Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander LGBTIQ+ people’s experiences of dating apps.
