The persistence of heteronormativity is not only due to the weight of social conventions and norms, but also to material conditions of existence: being in a couple means having more resources. Sophie Lewis asserts that the conditions of heterosexuality are inseparable from economic realities: ‘Most women are too overworked, too exhausted by the demands of capitalism and its culture of compulsory enjoyment to even have the opportunity to learn to love.’
Sophie Lewis wrote ‘Abolish the Family: A Manifesto for Care and Liberation’

“I simply do not see why the nation has to have an official sexuality, especially one that authorizes the norm of a violent gentility; that narrows the field of legitimate political action; that supports the amputation of personal complexity into categories of simple identity; that uses cruel and mundane strategies both to promote shame for non-normative populations and to deny them state, federal, and juridical supports because they are deemed morally incompetent to their own citizenship. This is the heterosexuality I repudiate.”
― Lauren Berlant, in "The Queen of America Goes to Washington City: Essays on Sex and Citizenship"

Heterosexuality is a regime of political oppression 🧶
"Just as racism produces race and not the other way round, sexism produces sex through the relationship of domination that reduces the dominated to things or natural objects."

Since getting comfortable with locating myself firmly on the #aromantic & #asexual & #queer spectrum, I’m thinking a lot about compulsive #heterosexuality / #sexuality and compulsive #romanticlove as a model for intimacy and how women are taught through the Love myth to self-enforce patriarchal misogynistic patterns of behaviour. Ellie Anderson’s explanation of her concept of hermeneutical labor is really good at making clear how these mechanisms actually work.

[OPINION] #Courage has no #gender: On the phrase ‘Minsan, mas lalaki pa sa lalaki ang bakla’, "Sometimes, a LGBTQ person can be more masculine than a straight man."
While intended to highlight #Awra’s #bravery, this #line from the #song “#Sirena” by #Filipino #rapper #Gloc9 inadvertently #perpetuates the #stereotype that #masculinity and #Heterosexuality represents an #ideal #standard.

Dorothy Parker gave good quote - and this little gem is one I hadn't seen before.
"Heterosexuality is not normal, it's just common."
(womensart1 used the quote on Instagram, which is how I learned, very belatedly, of its existence.)
