Duhhhhhhhh. The reproduction of "heteronormativity" is the only way to advance reproduction of the species. This crapola's only redeeming value is its comical stupidity.
But if sexual orientation is purely genetically determined like gays often insist, none of this would make any difference. So is all this hair tearing amongst these heterophobes therefore pure intolerance and bigotry?
“A description of my research interests:
My sociological work concerns the interplay of bodies, sexuality, and gender, and I am interested in exploring these intersections within everyday life. My research has examined gender differences in pubertal experience and first sex; how kids’ bodies are gendered in preschool; how gender identity serves as a form of social control during labor and childbirth; how college women (sorority women, athletes, and feminists) construct appearance routine; and how gender and sexuality are entangled in the advice experts give to parents gender-neutral child rearing. Currently, I am working on a project examining the (hetero)sexual socialization of very young children by parents and through media.” - Karin Martin

Wikipedia
Heteronormativity is a term describing the marginalization of non-heterosexual lifestyles and the view that heterosexuality is the normal sexual orientation. Instances of this include the idea that people fall into two distinct and complementary categories (male and female), that sexual and marital relations are normal only when between people of different sexes, and that each sex has certain natural roles in life. The heteronormative view is that physical sex, gender identity, and gender roles should, in any given person, align to either all-male or all-female cultural norms. The norms that this term describes might be explicit or implied. Those who identify and criticize heteronormativity say that it distorts discourse by stigmatizing some forms of sexuality and gender, and makes certain types of self-expression more difficult when that expression violates the norm.

Heteronormativity is a term used in the discussion of gender and society, mostly, but not exclusively within the field of critical theory. It is used to describe, and, frequently, to criticize how many social institutions and social policies are seen to reinforce certain beliefs. These include the belief that human beings fall into two distinct and complementary categories, male and female; that sexual and marital relations are normal only when between two people of different genders; and that each gender has certain natural roles in life.
Fairly accurate, between the two common sources one can gain a solid grasp of the definition.

Boise State University Composition Studies, Heteronormativity, and Popular Culture
Thomas Peele Boise State University
In this article, I argue that the field of composition studies is heteronormative. That is, as Michael Warner writes in another context, it thinks of heterosexuality as “the elemental form of human association, as the very model of intergender relations, as the indivisible basis of all community” (xxi). As a result of its heteronormative practices, composition studies not only underserves lesbian and gay students but also perpetuates the hegemonic marginalization of those students. Furthermore, in the absence of significant productions or examinations of discursive resistance to hegemonic constructions of lesbian and gay subjectivity, all students lose the opportunity to think of sexuality as discursively produced rather than as a natural or normal category of difference.

HETERONORMATIVITY (heteronormative): Those punitive rules (social, familial, and legal) that force us to conform to hegemonic, heterosexual standards for identity. The term is a short version of "normative heterosexuality."

Pinkett Smith’s Remarks Debated
BGLTSA calls comments “heteronormative,” pledges to work with Foundation

After some students were offended by Jada Pinkett Smith’s comments at Saturday’s Cultural Rhythms show, the Bisexual, Gay, Lesbian, Transgender, and Supporters Alliance (BGLTSA) and the Harvard Foundation for Intercultural and Race Relations have begun working together to increase sensitivity toward issues of sexuality at Harvard.
Students said that some of Pinkett Smith’s remarks concerning appropriate gender roles were specific to heterosexual relationships.
In a press release circulated yesterday by the BGLTSA—and developed in coordination with the Foundation—the BGLTSA called for an apology from the Foundation and encouraged future discussion of the issue.

Obama's Faith-Based Adviser Urges Challenge to ‘Heteronormative' Fatherhood
Monday, May 18, 2009
By Fred Lucas, Staff Writer
President Barack Obama - A controversial member of President Barack Obama’s faith-based council said that part of the administration’s role in promoting responsible fatherhood should include moving beyond America’s “heteronormative view of fatherhood.”
Apparently all the leftie gayboys want is "apologies" and "moving beyond."
Gee, that sounds kind of familiar. Seems like someone else in the news has been running around talking about "moving beyond" and “apologizing.”
Our brave new world looks like it going to be “1984” meets “Clockwork Orange”....God help us...
It's likely that kazyak's address won't work. Still, I suggested to them both that they should consider a more suitable job, one that doesn't require intellectual rigor. Cleaning toilets? Regards . . . Penny
It’s obvious that heterosexuality is normal or typical.
Homosexuality is a disorder.
hey - it worked for me....I’m sure I had little lights and butterflied dancing around my head when I started dating my hubby.
Still do.
