In this module, we discuss how some media platforms have started challenging heteronormativity in recent years. In particular, we focus on: (i) defining heteronormativity and identity; (ii) gender identity terms, including intersex, gender neutral, gender fluid and genderless; and (iii) media representations of challenging heteronormativity, including covers of Cosmopolitan and a Lloyds Bank advert from their "For Your Next Step" Campaign.
