On 'Anti-Gay' and 'Heterosexism' in the Wake of the AP's Ban on 'Homophobia'
Category: QUEER VOICES
Given the AP Stylebook's decision to discourage the use of the word "homophobia" by journalists, I thought it might be interesting to take a look at "heterosexism," what it does and doesn't mean, and why it (along with "anti-gay") cannot exactly replace "homophobia."
