Identity construction is demonstrated on online platforms such as Pinterest. Identity construction is where individuals of Pinterest’s member community practice creating an information-sharing network by organizing montage, art, and different statements on their pages creating a virtual identity (Tekobbe, 386). This virtual identity for Pinterest is seen on boards created by individuals. Posts created on these boards can be "re-pinned" by others to add to their own virtual identity. From the posts generated, gender identity is an outcome based on what has been shared.
