Spanish term or phrase: desconoce la institucionalización de la heteronorma que supone esa distinción
I keep thinking I understand this piece, and then I don't. What does "distinción" refer to? The binarism, or the diversity? Does the author mean the opposite?

Tal como lo indicaron Zalewski (2010) y Tolhurst, et.al. (2012), la estrategia de TG asume que las identidades de género se basan en el sexo y son claramente identificables. Reproduce el binarismo femenino-masculino expresado por los desarrollos feministas previos a los desarrollos del posestructuralismo. Esta caracterización del género en base a la asunción a-crítica de los cuerpos sexuados en términos dicotómicos, omite, por ejemplo, los cuerpos intersex (Fausto Sterling, 2000), ***desconoce la institucionalización de la heteronorma que supone esa distinción*** e invisibiliza las identidades de género diversas.

fails to recognize the institutionalization of the heteronorm <implied by that distinction
Explanation:
This can be tweaked in various ways to taste. In particularly I would be tempted to use "heteronormativity".

I think the distinction is the binarism, the idea being that binarism implies heteronormativity (one may or may not agree but I believe that's what the writer is saying). But I'll be conservative and give it confidence 3.

Sorry, I posted this by accident before I was ready. I was about to change "implied by" to "entailed in". But whatever.
