Heteronormativity is the belief that people fall into distinct and complementary genders (male and female) with natural roles in life. It assumes that heterosexuality is the only sexual orientation or only norm, and states that sexual and marital relations are most (or only) fitting between people of opposite sexes. Consequently, a heteronormative view is one that involves alignment of biological sex, sexuality, gender identity and gender roles.
The authors emphasize here the normative expectation that oneâs gender match oneâs sex category, claiming, even, that gender is a performance meant to prove oneâs sex. They argue that people rely on a variety of resources, like mannerisms, behaviors, and consumer goods to perform gender. Yet, it is precisely because gender is a performance that people can âpassâ for a gender identity that does not âmatchâ their sex category.
