'''Homonormativity''' is the state in which same-sex sexuality is the norm. In SF, it may be used to create a society very different than our own. It is only marked in societies with male and female genders, as [[single-sexed societies]] are, if not asexual, then homonormative by default.

==Examples==

===Novels===
*[[Lois McMaster Bujold]], ''[[Ethan of Athos]]''
*[[Anthony Burgess]], ''[[The Wanting Seed]]'' (homophobic)
*[[Joe Haldeman]], ''[[The Forever War]]''
*[[Naomi Mitchison]], ''[[Solution Three]]''
*[[Auctor Ignotus]], ''[[AE: The Open Persuader]]''
*[[Eleanor Arnason]], ''[[A Woman of the Iron People]]'', ''[[Ring of Swords]]''
*[[Brigid Brophy]], ''[[Palace Without Chairs]]''
*[[Rajesh Talwar]], ''[[Inside Gayland]]''
*[[Katharine Burdekin]], ''[[Swastika Night]]''

===Short Stories===
*[[Samuel R. Delaney]], ''[[Time Considered as a Helix of Semi-Precious Stones]]''
*[[Tanith Lee]], ''[[The Truce]]'', ''[[Love Alters]]''
*[[M. A. Bartter]], ''[[Be Ye Perfect]]''

'''Edith Eyde''' (aka "Edythe Eyde") was a fan, a writer, editor, gay rights activist, and folk musician.

She wrote one of the first gay utopias, in ''Vice Versa'', the first lesbian journal in the US; it was published in nine bimonthly issues, of only eight to sixteen copies each, from 1947 to 1948. ''Vice Versa'' included two fantasy stories ("New Year's Revolution" and "Kiki") and at least one lesbian critiques of a fantasy novel, Vardis Fisher's ''The Darkness and the Deep''.<ref>[[Eric Garber]] & [[Lyn Paleo]], ''[[Uranian Worlds]]'', 1990 ed.</ref> The Vice Versa Awards were established in 1997 to honor the gay press.<ref>See Q Syndicate Awards page.</ref>

In 1946 she helped organize the first major West Coast SF con, Pacificon.

In the 1950s, she began [[retellings|rewriting and parodying]] many folk and popular songs, performing the lesbianized versions in local clubs. The LA chapter of the Daughters of Bilitis released a 45 recording of some of the songs in 1960 as the first gay folk singer ("Frankie & Johnnie"; "Cruising Down the Boulevard").

==Names==
She wrote under at least two pseudonyms:
* '''Lisa Ben''' is a pseudonym (anagram of [[lesbian]]) for her work with ''Vice Versa''
* Another pseudonym, other SF novels

==Works==
* "[[New Year's Revolution]]", published in Jan. 1948 issue of ''Vice Versa'', included a gay utopia visited in a dream
