Abstract
Nowadays, short videos have become a platform for many people to show their bodies and express their emotions, so that male couples can also take advantage of the short video platform to be more bold in publicizing their sexual orientation, and even to put their intimate relationships on display. And the gay community’s activism in public space facilitates their access to more media discourse and promotes the realization of their identity. However, such face value-based performances of intimacy may be nothing more than fantasies of romantic love woven by people.
