Abstract
ABSTRACT After decades of invisibility in the media, trans content creators have established popular 6 channels on YouTube and other streaming platforms. This article investigates channels from Western and non-Western locations to understand their priorities and interests from a comparative perspective. Applying a word cloud analysis and an LDA topic analysis, this study identified creators’ preferred topics and occasional conflicts while allowing many insights into an emerging and diversifying trans sphere online. As creators have demonstrated varying levels of engagement in a context of mainstream media backlash and radical ideologies, the ability to generate common vocabularies within the trans community worldwide demonstrates an emerging and complex communicative power present on multiple fronts.
