My name is Tanaka and I’m a queer researcher at the Center of Sexuality and Health Disparities at the University of Michigan. I am currently recruiting gay and queer (gay, bisexual, pansexual, queer, trans, etc.; non-heterosexual) men to share their experiences on virtual intimacy, sex and building relationships both on and offline in an online survey. My goal is to understand how men navigate their physical environments using technology to meet their emotional and social needs.
I am looking for men who are attracted to men, sexually active, over 18, and a resident of the United States. Eligible participants willI take a survey which takes approximately 30 minutes and is completely confidential and will receive a $10 Amazon gift card for completing it.

Question for the forum: How do you all define virtual sex and does it have limitations or is it the solution to establishing strong and long-term connections?
