Monosexism × Zedsexism

Both result from heterosexism, and I’m making this post to explain the words, I didn’t invent, to show they describe things common and accepted by many people inside and outside the variant/LGBTQIAPN+/IMOGA community.

Definitions

Heterosexism: belief in social normality is to be straight (strict perioriented allo-mono-heterosexual).

· Monosexism: belief that people are only attracted to one gender (aphobia, biphobia, phobia, polyphobia, omniphobia…). Within this are:

} Zedsexism / Allosexism / Zedism: belief that all people will be affectively attracted to others, like sex/romance/touch/friendship, and want that. Within this are:

- Aphobia (acephobia / arophobia): discrimination against people of the a- spectrum (aromantic, asexual, asensual, aplatonic, etc.)

- Allonormativity / Zednormativity, umbrella term for:

Sex-normativity: the idea that everyone is sexually attracted / interested in sex;

Amato-normativity: the idea that everyone is romantically attracted or interested in romance. Similar to monogamism (mononormative polyphobia/monogamist polymisia);

Touch-normativity / Sense-normativity: the idea that everyone is corporeally/physically/tactilely attracted or sensually/sensorially interested in touches/sensory (hugs, kisses, hands given, etc);

Socio-normativity (plato-normativity): it is the idea that everyone is platonically/amically/socially attracted and must be interested in friendships; the platonic/social/amical norm merged into the nonromantic nonsexual relationships, including impersonal/professional ones in public life sphere; bigotry experienced by asocials/anamicals/aplatonics and anattractionals;

Look-normativity (lookism/unatractiphobia): the idea that everyone is aesthetically attracted and interested in appearance, or aesthetic discrimination against aesthetic celibacy;

} Homosexism: thought that all people are homosexual until proven otherwise, as in political lesbianism and exorsexist mascunormativity (masculist andrinism, binarist androsexism). Another thought advocated by homonationalists and self-defined homosexists that they should only relate to other <perioriented> homosexuals (gays with gays and lesbians with lesbians). Basically respectability politics glorifying homonormativity.

} Perism/Periorism (periorientism or variphobia): bigotry against varioriented people, the idea that everyone shouldn’t be cross-oriented, being all perioriented, when the romantic and sexual orientations have to be the same (perioriented);

} Orientation/Identity Binarism: limiting the existence of orientations/identities into a duality/binarity, as: homo and hetero; mono and bi; bi, ace and mono (as if there was only man and woman as genders, a dualism). Within this are:

- Pomophobia/Labelism: the thought that people can’t have undefined attractions, as in macrolabel supremacism vs identity skepticism. A monolabel and macrolabel supremacism;

- Strictism/Suptilicism (abrophobia/amplusphobia/orientation suptilism): belief that nobody has fluid nor flux attraction, everyone has to be suptilic, as in ace/asexual elitism (greyphobia/grayphobia/gray-aphobia/gracephobia/graymisia/greymisia/grey-amisia) [usually with a bioessentialist innatism too];

- Bisexism: belief everyone is bisexual, reinforcing/enforcing the binormativity.

- [other] (panphobia/polyphobia/etc)

Note: peri/dycisheterosexism is a substitute for LGBTphobia / MOGAIphobia.

Aspec people aren’t attracted by one gender, except when they are gray-mono (singular attraction in grey area), but this is just adherent, and suptilic a-specs (of black area, omniaces/omniaros) are totally non-mono.

People always assume what kind of gender we might relate to, and when they don’t know and we never show or express something more for someone, people will always want to define us, and when we get out of social normality, which is dycishet² (cis-hetero-dyadic pattern), we have to give explanations, they call us confused, complicated, ill, etc. All this because our orientation is dissident/variant, and when we express what we feel, where the allonormativity is unmasked, we have to prove our sexuality / affectivity.

Almost all of society treat relationships as if everyone must kiss, have sex, romance, etc. as a requirement for existing, and that if there is not all of it, it’s just friendship.

A- Spectrum (a-spectral): inclusion for asexual, aromantic, asensual, aplatonic/asocial, ansthetic/nonaesthetic, analterous and aqueerplatonic people (avoid using aphilia, since a-spec is not synonymous with loveless/unaffective, these people can rather love and have affection).

Dycishet/Pericishet (a strict perioriented heterosexual dyadic/perisex cisgender cissex/ual person): a conformant person, with suptilic heterosexuality, monoallosexual/zedsexual periorientation, suptilian monocom-cisgenderness and perisexuality [read more here].

Dyadicity (perisex/endosex): non-intersex person, of vulval or testicular dyadic corporeality/body [read more].

MOGAI or IMOGA: intersexualities, marginalized orientations and gender alignments. People whose sexuality/romanticity/gender/sex diverge the pericishet/dyallomonocishet pattern (pericisheterodissident).
