sociologists refer to the cultural presupposition that sexual relationships should exist between a man and a woman and that alternate sexualities are deviant, abnormal, or wrong, as
a heterosexuality.
b homophobia.
c heteronormativity.
d homonormativity.

Explanation:

• Heterosexuality (A) is a sexual orientation, not a cultural presupposition.
• Homophobia (B) is the fear or dislike of homosexuals, not the described cultural norm.
• Heteronormativity (C) is the cultural belief that heterosexuality is the normal and correct sexual orientation, and other sexualities are deviant. This matches the description in the question.
• Homonormativity (D) is a concept related to the normalization of homosexuality in certain contexts, which is the opposite of what the question describes.

Answer:

C. heteronormativity.
