摘要
Despite the comparative safety of online environments, transgender and gender diverse (TGD) people can be exposed to cyberbullying and non-consensual sexting. An online survey of 146 TGD adults examined whether this contributes to gender minority stress. Multiple mediation analyses revealed links between cyberbullying and gender victimization, and between non-consensual sexting and victimization, discrimination, and gender rejection. These forms of gender minority stress fully mediated paths from cyberbullying and sexting to psychological distress in both gender binary and non-binary TGD people. Results are discussed from the perspective of trans-affirming counselors seeking to understand emerging online threats to their clients' mental health.
