Summary/Abstract: This methodological article focuses on TikTok and explains how we deployed a feminist methodology and qualitative methods to study women's practices of resistance in TikTok in the face of the prevailing antifeminism there. We detail the implementation of a data densification model and develop a double argument. Firstly, feminist perspectives played an essential role in studying a digital terrain in a complex and rigorous way, without reifying or over- or under-interpreting the realities studied. Secondly, this research design helped reinforce the ethical dimension of the approach. To elaborate on these two points, the article looks at “how to” research women's digital practices in TikTok
