GAYLES.TV.- It is a recurring controversy in recent years. Fortunately there is more and more representation LGTB + in the movies, who should play these roles? It is evident that being an actor is above all knowing how to put yourself in the shoes of the other, so any good actor could play these roles, but the debate transcends the professional. Should we give way to minority groups that often cannot choose other characters? The debate is served.

Wentworth Miller, famous for «Prison Break«He announced a few days ago that he does not want heterosexual roles. The actor, who announced in 2013 that he is gay, said he will never be Michael Scofield in the series if this prison drama returns because “I just don't want to play straight characters. Their stories have been told (and told)".

Miller He made it clear on his Instagram that his position was personal and consistent with his sexual orientation. "Am I saying that gay actors should only play gay roles? No. I'm speaking for myself. At this point in my life / career is what I feel. With that said, do I want to see more gay roles played by gay actors? Yes”. In fact he had already refused to go to the festival of San Petersburgo, to show their support for the collective and protest against the so-called anti-gay law of Russia.

Last July the actor of «High School Musical », Lucas Grabel, He assured that, as a straight actor, he has more opportunities than gays and that is why he should step aside. In the same line Darren Criss, who has given life to homosexuals in "Glee" o "American crime story" announced two years ago that he would only play heterosexual roles: "I want to make sure that I won't be another straight guy taking the role from a gay man".

It was then that the public debate began about who should play the trans characters. The situation of inequality faced by the trans community in the film industry is so limiting that although anyone can play the role, it is worth not missing opportunities.

Precisely the criticism for accepting to play a transsexual made Scarlett Johansson give up the movie «Rub & Tug«. Transgender performers protested that he was stealing one of the few job opportunities from them.

As well Halle Berry He gave up playing a transsexual: “As a cisgender woman I now understand that I should not have considered that character and that the transgender community should have the opportunity to tell their own stories.".

But if anyone has understood the controversy Glen Close. “Acting is an art. Personally, I think anyone should be able to play any character. But I understand trans people perfectly, I understand their frustration seeing that they are like the character they are looking for, and they are not chosen. That moment will come, I hope"Said the actress. And he warned: “Trans people should also be able to play heterosexual characters. For me, that is the key, that everyone can play everyone. But I understand why they are so passionate, because this has not happened yet".

In addition, it will include self-determination of gender without the need for a medical report or undergoing treatment to change physical appearance.

Equality recognizes that 3 / 2007 to allow trans people to rectify their registered sex without the need for surgical treatment of genital surgeries was a pioneer and supposed «a substantial advance“, But he believes that it is necessary to go one step further to equip itself with international standards. That rule does not allow minors to request registry rectification and requires proof of «gender dysphoria»By means of a medical or psychological report, in addition to undergoing treatment for at least two years to accommodate the physical characteristics of the claimed sex, so that transsexuality continues to be treated as a disease.

Historical discrimination

According to the Ministry, eight autonomous communities have already guaranteed the right to gender self-determination of people who manifest a gender identity that does not coincide with the sex assigned at the time of birth. The goal is to end a «historical and systematic discrimination towards this group«. In this sense, the document with which the public consultation is opened highlights the Article 14 of the Spanish Constitution that guarantees non-discrimination of transsexual people and the Article 9 that orders the public powers to eliminate obstacles so that this equality is real and effective.

For the first time Consells Nacionals de Catalunya, representing almost 800 entities, come together to register a petition to the Parliament of Catalonia on the Llei per a la Igualtat de Tracte i la No Discrimination

Llei d'Igualtat de Tracte i No DiscriminacióAt the end of the registrations, they were received by the President of the Parliament of Catalonia, Roger Torrent, with which they debated the need to pass the law within this legislature, after the bill has entered the Parliament on several occasions since 2015.

Why is it urgent to pass this law to combat LGBTIphobia?

The urgency for this law to be approved is given by the imminent completion of the current legislature in Catalunya. In other words, either it is approved in two weeks or it will continue to stretch over time. Hence the importance that, in a transversal way, all National Councils of Catalonia, who are direct beneficiaries of this law, have come together to exert greater pressure on those responsible for all parliamentary groups and the President of the Parliament.

It is urgent to guarantee the rights of people against all discrimination, not only those that affect LGBTI people. LGBTIphobia is not solved only with administrative fines. This law represents an opportunity to improve the infractions and sanctions regime with the experience of Llei 11/2014, and incorporate mediation and conflict resolution through training and services to the community.

Vice President Mike Pence has a long history of formulating anti-law and rhetoric.LGTB +.

Trans people have been a target of the administration Trump From the beginning. Almost immediately after Trump took office in 2017, he revoked an Obama-era memorandum that directed schools to protect trans students from discrimination. That same July, Trump announced his decision to ban trans people from serving in the military.

In May 2018, his administration also persecuted prisoners tranny and decided that, in most cases, trans people should be housed according to their sex assigned at birth. And this summer, the Department of Housing and Urban Development proposed a rule that would allow federally funded homeless shelters to house trans people based on sex assigned at birth. It also published a new rule on June 12, 2020 that allows doctors to discriminate against people. LGTB +.

In addition, Trump has appointed three conservative magistrates of the Supreme Court during his presidency. If he wins the elections again, it would mean the appointment of more federal judges anti-LGTB +, a judge of the Supreme Court (maybe even two) and an escalation in legal arguments against trans rights.

Also immigration rights for people LGTB + would be devastating since in November 2018 Trump tightened immigration rules.

Viggo Mortensen plays a gay man in his directorial debut

Viggo Mortensen makes his directing debut with "Falling", a film that explores the relationship of a gay son with his homophobic father

GAYLES.TV.- Viggo Mortensen (New York, 1958) has always gone against the tide. If for everyone 2020 is a annus horribilis, for him it will be a date to remember: Donosti Award at the San Sebastián Festival, selected in the Cannes film festival, projection at the festivals of Sundance y Toronto, Sebastiane 2020 Award from Donostia Zinemaldia and finally today his debut film opens in theaters. Almost nothing.

For his directorial debut Mortensen disguises what is actually a political film as a family melodrama. «Falling » tells the story of John petersen (Viggo Mortensen) and the relationship he has with his father Willis (Lance Henriksen) an 80 year old traditional and conservative farmer. The clash between the two is constant. The father is a homophobic, macho and nationalist type until death, while the son is married to an oriental-looking Hawaiian man, has a Mexican adoptive daughter and of course is on the left.

Two opposing ways of seeing the world that have to coexist. The homework of Mortensen as director is that we do not end up hating Willis and his belligerent homophobia. Get the character to generate a certain tenderness despite his conservatism.

Clearly «Falling » is the most personal bet of Mortensen in which he has been involved in the entire creative process. He appears in the credits not only as a filmmaker, he is also an actor, producer, screenwriter, and even composer of the film.
