Description Drawn for part of a project I did for my Sociology of Gender class a few semesters ago. Drawn by hand, colored with photoshop.

Heteronormativity "is the belief that people fall into distinct and complementary genders  (man  and woman ) 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 sexsexualitygender identity  and gender roles . Heteronormativity is often linked to heterosexism  and homophobia " -Wikipedia.
I was also taught that heteronormativity provides the idea that all romantic/sexual relationships follow the guideline of heterosexual relationships, hence: "Which of you is the man?"
