Queer Desi TikTok Accounts You Must Follow

The Chinese social media app TikTok has taken the world by storm. While it was initially popular in Asia, it has now taken over the West too. Tik Tok is the most popular social media app today, overcoming Facebook and Instagram.

TikTok has been able achieve something that some of the other apps like Facebook and Instagram have not been able to do – breach the class divide. And so you find an urban suave Indian on the app, and the rural daily wage earner too. If you can act, dance, or lip sync, the app is for you, and talent is not class restricted.

An average TikToker is either in his teens, or early 20s. This age group is also one that is very open to the idea of sexuality and gender. So, it is not uncommon to find Tik Tok users grooving to an item number, or being homo-romantic at times. While some of them are gay, many others aren’t.

Apart from entertaining their followers, they are also educating them on gender and sexuality issues, normalising the conversation around queer issues, or breaking gender stereotypes. Today, we list some TikTok accounts of queer Indians who produce great content, and who we think you must follow.

Sunny (le)One (@sunnyone47888)

Move over the canadian Sunny Leone. This desi Sunny will certainly set your tik tok on fire. “Hi Guys, I am Sunny…” is how most of the videos start. Sunny posts about their daily life activities, and rants about the lovers they have, or the people who they meet on the road. In some videos, they have cross-dressed and can be seen dancing. Sunny’s way of speaking, and quirky take on life will keep you hooked to their videos. The best part is that they have a very supportive family, who also feature in some of their videos. They have 875K followers and 37M likes. Have a brief glimpse below:
