This article proposes a reflection on the field of social research around dating apps for men and their link with sexuality, in a setting where biomedicalizing approaches have prevailed. From that place, two important tensions to develop are identified: the sociocultural context where the research is inserted, and the position of the subject assumed theoretically, implying in turn epistemic and ethical-political considerations. The relevance of incorporating critically and situated in the context as a frame and the subject as an active entity is pointed out. The article concludes with a discussion regarding these topics in the Latin American scenario, considering their position in the field of global knowledge circulation.
