Heteronormative
Jada Pinkett Smith made some comments at Harvard University that some students found offensive. In their complaint regarding her remarks, the offended parties labeled Smith's speech heteronormative -- a choice of vocabulary that (IMHO) really sends their point home.
Ah, college, the place where you assail plain speech with a word that does not appear either in Merriam-Webster or at Dictionary.com.

For those of you mid-thesis, it is worth noting that heteronormativity has a substantial Wikipedia definition available either there or at Answers.com.
