The Ties that Bind: Compulsory Heterosexuality and its Subjects. This paper will apply theoretical models of compulsory heterosexuality to an analysis of real-world experiences as exemplified in a high school dance experienced by the author. Later these same experiences will be mediated through the consciousness of an imaginary homosexual female subject of Chinese descent. It will be argued that compulsory heterosexuality functions on a variety of levels, and cannot be interpreted simply as a Western or European construct. Rather, as much as with patriarchy, its reach is global and subtly pervasive. 6 pgs. 7 f/c. 2b.
