We perform our roles, and when we do not, it is confusing to others...

What's the difference, though?

Heteronormativity, like patriarchy, structures our institutions, behavior, and culture.

"Hegemonic masculinity" is constructed in relation to other subordinated masculinities as well as in relation to women (Connell et. al 1982).

“I want something more than my husband, my children, and my home”

Access to formal education and then settling down into the private sphere made women unprepared for domestic life.

1) The concentration of social power in the hands of men leaves little room for women to construct institutionalized power;

2) the organization of a hegemony around dominance over the other sex is absent from the social construction of femininity (Connell et. al 1982).

THE PATRIARCHY IN THE BEDROOM:

1. Men prefer penetration

...whenever a woman is incapable of achieving an orgasm via coitus, provided the husband is an adequate partner, and prefers clitoral stimulation to any other form of sexual activity, she can be regarded as suffering from frigidity and requires psychiatric assistance. (The Sexually Adequate Female, p.64.)

2. Women's pleasure makes them equal

3. Penis = masculinity

4. Fear of replacement

5. Control

6. Heteronormativity

"Hegemonic masculinity" is constructed in relation to other subordinated masculinities as well as in relation to women (Connell et. al 1982).
