TY - JOUR PY - 2007// TI - Heterosexual Privilege: The Political and the Personal JO - Hypatia A1 - Feigenbaum, Erika Faith SP - 1 EP - 9 VL - 22 IS - 1 N2 - In this essay, Feigenbaum examines heterosexism as it functions politically and interpersonally in her own experience. She loosely traces her analysis along the current political climate of the bans on same-sex marriages, using this discussion to introduce and illustrate how heterosexual dominance functions. The author aims throughout to clarify what heterosexism looks like “in action,” and she moves toward providing steps to recognize, name, interrupt, and counter heterosexist privilege.
