Question

BlackTom AI · Accepted Answer

In this question, we’re looking for the rationale that Griffiths & Armstrong (2023) identify to explain why trans and nonbinary individuals often prefer dating within their gender minority group.
Option A: 'Shared experiences of stigma and marginalization foster understanding.' This aligns with common scholarly explanations that shared minority experiences create deeper empathy, resonance, and a sense of safety within relationships that involve someone who has faced similar social challenges.
Option B: 'Cisgender partners are generally less willing to engage in LGBTQ+ spaces.' While there may be situational or perceptual barriers for some cisgender partners, this claim overgeneralizes and is not the primary rationale reported by the authors for intra-community dating preferences. It also shifts focus from shared experience to partner willingness, which is less central as a rationale for preference.
Option C: 'LGBTQ+ dating app algorithms favor intra-community matches.' This is a claim about platform design rather than a social or interpersonal reason for a preference, and it is not typically presented as the core rationale in qualitative or theoretical discussions about motivations for dating within a minority group.
Option D: 'Trans and nonbinary individuals report less attraction to cisgender individuals.' This suggests a universal decrease in attraction that is not typically claimed as a general justification; it also ignores the broader social-psychological factors discussed in the literature, such as shared lived experiences and safety.
Option E: 'A & B' combines A with B. Since A is a solid, journaling-supported rationale but B is not robustly supported as the central reason in the article, combining them does not create the best-supported rationale. The pairing may muddy the clearer explanation that shared experiences of stigma and marginalization foster understanding.
Taken together, option A presents the most theoretically grounded and directly supported rationale for why trans and nonbinary individuals might prefer dating within their gender minority group, emphasizing shared experiences and mutual understanding as the core driver.
