	Comte's Utopia
		This is the logical end of the hegemonic privileging of heterosexuality, which conceives of human social relations strictly in terms of husband-wife and parent-child binarisms and allows other relations to exist only as threats, aberrations, and monstrosities.
		Thus, the positivist liturgy involves mostly a worship of women, a celebration of how, in the future utopia, the original sin of heterosexual desire need no longer be suppressed: it has been "washed away" by the saving grace of the Divine Feminine (Standley 1981: 102).
		The French Revolutionary calendar devoted eight of the thirty required festivals to types of familial discourse (Reid, 1993: 37), but Comte's calendar of social worship dedicates an entire month to Marriage, which is the "primary Social Relation" (other social relations do not rate their own month).
