In this article, the author discusses a method of narrative analysis that may function to expand the heteronormative, the ideology that heterosexuality and traditional gender and sex roles are natural, normal, and morally superior. Heteronarrative analysis examines how the body and subject are made up within the heteronormative through the structure of narrative. Prior to discussing this method, the author will review the theories that inform it-the body and subject formed in and through language, the heteronarrative and the constitution of the body and subject, and narratology, a popular narrative theory from literary studies. The author concludes with a few thoughts on the possibilities of expanding the heteronormative through heteronarrative analysis
