Notes

1. It is important not to confuse Stryker's notion of homonormativity with the more popular one identified by Lisa Duggan (2002). Duggan's conception describes gays and lesbians who want to conform to heteronormative ideals of citizenship, consumerism, and belonging.

2. See especially the article in this report by Luis Abolafia Anguita, “Aid conditionality and respect for LGBT people rights,” pp. 9–15. For the full statement the African organizations released, see: Association for Women's Rights in Development (AWID, 2011). Thank you to Scott Long for drawing my attention to this document on his blog, http://paper-bird.net/.
