Reference: Heteronormativity: What It Means and Why It’s Harmful, According to Experts (msn.com)
Yes, we had to look it up. According to Wikipedia, “heteronormativity” is “the belief that heterosexuality is the default, preferred, or normal mode of sexual orientation. It assumes the gender binary (i.e., that there are only two distinct, opposite genders) and that sexual and marital relations are most fitting between people of opposite sex. A heteronormative view therefore involves alignment of biological sex, sexuality, gender identity and gender roles. Heteronormativity is often linked to heterosexism and homophobia. The effects of societal heteronormativity on lesbian, gay and bisexual individuals can be examined as heterosexual or ‘straight’ privilege.” Heteronormativity – Wikipedia
It certainly is interesting to most of us that there happening to be just two biological genders is defined as a “belief” rather than a “fact.” The psychologists and psychiatrists coming up with this nonsense now have a century under their belts defining normal behaviors as abnormal, and abnormal behaviors as normal, so as to justify their existence and expand their disciplines’ imprint on the “intellectual” and academic worlds. Remember when the DSM was only about 1/2 inch thick? But they aren’t going to get tenure if they don’t keep coming up with new stuff. If only wishing really did make things come true.
Victimology is, of course, behind most of this nonsense. Everyone is a victim these days – every black person, every queer person, every sad but confused “gender dysphoria” addict. And each victim has a “disorder” of one sort or another, so they can’t be blamed for their situation – society and its systemic “racism”, “homophobia”, “transphobia”, etc. are to blame. The media and these gender activists, in cohort with their out-in-left-field Democratic buddies, are hard at work trying to convince the American public that all these supposed maladies are “normal” and that all the rest of us, and government, have to accept and accommodate them.
Next, we’re going to figure out just what the hell “intersectionality” means, if it actually means anything at all.
