RFV discussion: June–August 2020[edit]

The following information has failed Wiktionary's verification process (permalink).

Failure to be verified means that insufficient eligible citations of this usage have been found, and the entry therefore does not meet Wiktionary inclusion criteria at the present time. We have archived here the disputed information, the verification discussion, and any documentation gathered so far, pending further evidence.
Do not re-add this information to the article without also submitting proof that it meets Wiktionary's criteria for inclusion.


Rfv-sense: the opposite of heteronormativity Kiwima (talk) 21:21, 25 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

If there are citations where homonormativity refers to an assumption that everyone is gay, we should consider whether it's better to view it as a distinct definition or just tweak definition 2. The "especially" in def 2, "The assumption that sexual and romantic attraction and activity between people of the same sex is normal, especially in a culture which also treats opposite-sex activity as normal", already somewhat implies it could also refer to an assumption that homosexuality is the [only] normal. - -sche (discuss) 23:07, 25 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
Needs clarifying in any case. It says "The opposite of heteronormativity, the assumption that people are straight unless otherwise stated". What follows the comma might either be further explaining homo~ or repeating the definition from hetero~. (It's like the difference between defining red as "the opposite of green (grass colour)" or as "the opposite of green; the colour of cherries".) Equinox 19:20, 30 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
RFV-failed, but I tweaked the former sense 2 (now sense 1 again). - -sche (discuss) 07:31, 6 August 2020 (UTC)Reply
