(This was written after reading an article by Joseph Neisen in the Fall 1990 issue of OUT/LOOK, titled "Heterosexism or Homophobia? The Power of the Language We Use." He writes, "Heterosexism... identifies the true origin of the prejudice... and concentrates on the real problem - discrimination against gay men and lesbians... use of heterosexism leads the way from victimization to survival.") You're applying for a job So you're filling out a form And for all intents and purposes You fit into the norm Until it says to list your next of kin But there's no box to fit you in Cause the one you love The one who shares your life Is not your husband or your wife Oh no! Heterosexism strikes again So use the power of the pen To draw a box of your own and then Label it however you like: Lover, spouse or partner-in-life That's one way you can fight When heterosexism strikes Michael served his country well When he went to fight the war And each letter from his lover He locked safely in a drawer Until a witch hunt of McCarthy style Demanded he be put on trial They said his love, his sexuality Threatened national security Oh no! Heterosexism knocks you down But pick yourself up off the ground And challenge them to a second round
