It talked about the early age of the internet in the country and the creation of online-offline gay communities from the mid-1990s to the mid 2000s.

It has an interview as an afterword that talks about the path ahead for queer rights in India, in the context of the recent Supreme Court judgement decriminalizing homosexuality. | ||
