What does heteronormativity mean?

Heteronormativity is the belief that heterosexuality is the default sexual orientation and, implicitly, that everyone is cisgender. This belief can be subtle to the heterosexual, cisgender population. For example, institutions (marriage, laws, schools), pop culture (love songs, movies, characters) and social behaviours (“What kind of girls/guys do you like?”) often align with heteronormativity. 

Heteronormativity can often lead people within the LGBTQ+ community to feel under-represented or erased from representation.

We've created a massive LGBTQ+ Glossary (69+ words)

The world is increasingly accepting of the LGBTQ+ community, but it isn't always easy to understand the different sub-communities and nuances. In part due to the censorship in sex education and the mainstream media (hello from Singapore), many find themselves stumped by some of the terms relating to the LGBTQ+ community. 

Fret not, we're here to help! 🦄

We've created a massive glossary of 69+ LGBT-related terms, built on multiple sources and expanded upon with easy-to-understand examples so that you can get a grasp on all of these terms.
