# 8M: Feminist revolt. With rights, without borders.

We fight for women to own our bodies, our desires and our decisions, so that sexual dissident people, especially trans women, stop suffering aggressions and multiple violence, and for a society that respects and values ​​functional diversity, sexual diversity, and diversity of identity and / or gender expression

Gayles.tv/Comision#8M.- We demand that the macho violence as a matter that concerns the State and the whole society. There are 18 women killed this 2020, 99 who were killed in 2019 and 1046 since there are records, with 32 complaints a day in Spain for sexual assault and abuse, Therefore, it is necessary to take into account the different causes and dimensions of sexist violence, ending all those that we suffer daily and that become invisible or normalize in all areas and vital spaces, whatever our age and condition ( home, work, public spaces, couple, family, work environment, society and state institutions). We also point out and denounce the sexual violence that affects us even more markedly to women in a situation of vulnerability, such as migrated women, domestic workers, women with functional diversity, guardianships and women with mental health problems that suffer violence leaving their rights unprotected. We want to move freely in all spaces, public and private, and at all hours and denounce the patriarchal justice that does not consider us full-fledged persons and that wants us docile, submissive and quiet.

We fight for women to own our bodies, our desires and our decisions, so that sexual dissident people, especially trans women, stop suffering aggressions and multiple violence, and for a society that respects and values ​​functional diversity, sexual diversity, and diversity of identity and / or gender expression. Our bodies are not merchandise or objects to be reified and used as a claim, and our life processes are not diseases. We also demand the eradication of any type of obstetric-gynecological violence that is exerted on women. We demand that abortion be outside the Criminal Code and be recognized as a right of women to decide on our body and our motherhood, and that the autonomy of women 16 and 17 years of age to decide be respected. We also demand that its performance be guaranteed in public health services. Finally, we want to denounce the punishment that falls on us for our diversity, for our age, for being migrated and for being racialized, for having functional diversity or an image far from the normativity.

But all of the above will not be possible if we do not break the sexual division of labor that condemns us to precariousness, labor discrimination and the lowest paid, unpaid, invisible and illegal jobs. We claim that our employment situation allows us to develop a vital project with dignity and autonomy; and that employment is adapted to the needs of life so that pregnancy or care cannot be subject to dismissal or labor marginalization, nor should they undermine our personal or professional expectations.

We fight for a labor market that is based on real equality, because the jobs we are able to access are marked by temporality, precariousness, uncertainty, low wages, unwanted part-hours, the wage gap and a glass ceiling. We demand alternatives for migrant workers in an irregular administrative situation. We also demand the pensions we have earned, not more misery pensions that force us to suffer poverty in old age. We ask for co-ownership of pensions and that the time dedicated to care tasks or that we have developed in the field, be recognized in the calculation of pensions as well as work in the labor market and we fight for the ratification of Convention 189 of the ILO that regulates domestic work. We want the value and dignity of the domestic and care work that women perform, and the rights of those who perform them, to be made visible and recognized, so that co-responsibility is assumed by all men, society and the State. Care work must be recognized as a social good of the highest order.

As feminists, we firmly oppose wild neoliberalism that prevails as a unique thought worldwide and that destroys our planet and our lives. The women have a primary role in the fight against climate change and in the preservation of biodiversityFor this reason, we are firmly committed to the food sovereignty of the people, we demand that the defense of life be at the center of the economy and politics, and we support the struggles that lead women who defend their lands, their wisdom and resources of their peoples, even risking their lives, threatened by extractivism, transnational corporations, and free trade agreements; against old and new forms of exploitation. We are antimilitarists and we are against wars, which are the product and extension of patriarchy and capitalism for the control of territories and people, and because the direct consequence of wars is millions of women refugees worldwide, women that we are being victimized, forgotten and violated. We are against the authoritarian and repressive states that impose gag laws and criminalize feminist protest and resistance, and position ourselves against the discourse of the extreme right that has placed women, migrants, racialized and LGBTIs as a priority objective of their offensive ultraliberal, racist and patriarchal.

We are anti-racist because we are part of a diverse, multicultural society, with a trajectory of coexistence of different people and cultures for centuries. That is why we are also against the Aliens Law and the walls that rise in our country and we are going to break with the borders, racism and xenophobia that crosses and crosses the whole society, so that no woman has to migrate forced by the policies colonial, neo-liberal and racist countries of the Global North, which produce unsustainable economic, war, social and environmental situations. We demand the welcome of all migrated and refugee people, for whatever reason, because we are free women in free territories. We demand that our rights as women be guaranteed, and we believe in a world where nobody dies at sea, without walls, or wires, or fences, or concertinas, or CIEs, or racist raids, because no human being is illegal.

To achieve that other possible world we need lay societies, where education has to be the key. We demand that the feminist perspective be transversal to all disciplines and at all levels; an education free of heteropatriarchal values, as well as the Affective-sexual education is contemplated in the school curriculum and is comprehensive, free of sexist, capacitist, racist and LGBTIphobic stereotypes. An emotional-sexual formation that allows us to develop in diversity, without fear, without complexes, without reducing ourselves to mere objects, thus avoiding macho or LGBTIphobic aggressions in the classrooms.

We are an international and diverse movement and we are preceded by a long genealogy of feminist struggles, that is why we also remember the suffragists, the trade unionists, all those who made the Second Republic possible, those who fought in the Civil War and for the Revolution Social and against the Franco dictatorship suffering a repression directed and specific by the fact of being women; and all this without forgetting that feminist memory has the power and responsibility to connect us with the genealogies of the struggles of those who precede us, making visible what has historically been made invisible from a patriarchal perspective.

And we propose another way of seeing, of understanding, of being in the world and of relating. In short, we propose a new common sense.

We know that we must keep moving forward. We know each other strong and continue fighting.

WE ARE FEMINIST REVOLUTION AND WE WILL GET THE WORLD THAT WE WANT!

Do you have passive orgasms?

How to achieve orgasm when being penetrated without masturbating

GAYLES.TV.- Few issues are as controversial, obscure and equivocal as the practice of anal penetration. There are many common mistakes like believing that all Gais practice it or even that is the basic form of sexual relationship between homosexuals and that, of course, is not entirely true. Those who have less than an anus (a truism) and a certain sensitivity, in fact anal penetration also occurs in heterosexual or even lesbian relationships and we must not forget that for decades, before the existence of contraceptives, it was a habitual way of avoiding unwanted pregnancies.

Personalizeddot-g-maleBecause there is a lot of fear, especially in gay teenagers, to the pain that it can cause and in fact it is so if the person who does it does not take the trouble to be delicate and dilate little by little an area that tends to contract at the beginning. Clarified this what is true is that a penetration can lead to intense pleasure for those who are penetrated, that is, for passive gay, to the point that some men manage to achieve what is known as "a dry orgasm", which is one in which the stimulation of the penis does not participate. Ejaculation in these cases, if it occurs, is a consequence of penetration, not the purpose of the relationship, because the priority for the passive is to be penetrated.

But what is it that makes us feel so much pleasure to the point that we have come to talk about "G point" in the upper front of the rectum? Because the responsible is a small irregular and reddish gland known as prostate and whose usual function is to segregate the semen or rather the liquid base that transports the spermatozoa. As the prostate is located in the neck of the bladder, above the anus, it can be perfectly stimulated by the internal rubbing of the penis from which it penetrates, although usually it is not enough to reach an orgasm and is accustomed to accompany the masturbation of the passive.

But there are men who achieve orgasm being penetrated without masturbating, known as "Involuntary ejaculation" and must be distinguished from "dry orgasm" which is a jolt of pleasure in which it does not ejaculate. Obviously in addition to a certain organic predisposition of the passive, it is important the ability of the person who penetrates to rub the point of the prostate at the propitious moment of excitement.anal-gay-sex

The truth is that the orgasms achieved in this way can be as or more intense than those produced by an ejaculation and also allow the passive to be multi-orgasmic, since they do not produce expulsion of semen and make it possible to recover and continue enjoying. Sometimes the excitement that is felt is so powerful that inevitably causes ejaculation that ends the sexual act.

Of course not everyone gets dry orgasms and nothing happens if penetration is accompanied by masturbation, only that you do not experience the sensation of dry or prostate. So you know, it's Friday and a good time to practice.

Happy weekend and happy orgasms!

Sir Elton John, British singer and songwriter, and David Furnish, Canadian film director, they met at the beginning of the 90. Elton had already declared himself homosexual in 1976 and, after his divorce from the German Renate Blauel in 1988, said he was comfortable being gay. Elton and David they started in 1993 a relationship that lasts until today. They are one of the first couples in fact of the United Kingdom, having formalized the relationship on the same day that it came into force in the country, the December 21 of 2005. 

Apart from being a stable couple, Elton and David are a complete family: Its first son, Zachary Jackson Levon Furnish-John, was born from a surrogate on December 25, 2010. His godmother is the well-known Lady Gaga. his second son He was born on January 11, 2013, also born to the same surrogate mother, and was named Elijah Joseph Daniel Furnish-John.

With the law of equal marriage that is about to take effect in the United Kingdom, Elton John declared a few months ago that it was his and David's duty to be one of the first couples to get married in the country.

Cary Grant and the origin of the word "gay"

The word "gay" first appeared in the RAE dictionary in 2011

GAYLES.TV.- The word «gay»Spanish is a direct copy of English«gay ». Experts believe that this has its origin in the French of the twelfth century. The term "gay" is of Occitan origin and in Spanish it is "gayo", as in gay science, with the meaning of cheerful or showy. It comes from the Latin "Gaius" which means carefree, cheerful and happy or from Latin "Gaudium" What does "joy" mean? In Catalan the verb "gaudir" means enjoy, enjoy.

Origin word gay Cary GrantIn the France of the 16th century the Bourbon House He developed a particular taste for excessive luxury, ostentation, dawning in dress and forms. Those customs were crossed out by the English as gay, that is, very cheerful and feminine, especially because of their way of dressing. The term gay happened to apply to men who exercised homosexual prostitution in Victorian England.

But the popularization of the term is due to an expression used by the British actor Cary Grant. To interpret their characters in «The beast of me little girl"  y "The bride was him" He had to dress in women's clothes. It was then that he said he felt "gay of all sudden". This quote became very famous and began the popularization of the word.

The writer G he had already used the term in his current sense in the 20 years of the last century, but it was first used publicly in the United States as a synonym for homosexuality in the films of Cary Grant. From the 60, the term was generalized. At first it had a pejorative nuance and in the 70 the word “gay boy ” was introduced by the gay community of San Francisco and taken as a badge to refer to themselves within homosexual liberation movements.

The tears of Justin Trudeau

The Prime Minister of Canada, Justin Trudeau, breaks into tears while apologizing to the LGTBQ2 community in the Ottawa Parliament

GAYLES.TV.- Last Tuesday, in a parliamentary session in Ottawa, the prime minister of Canada Justin Trudeau he apologized on behalf of the State with the LGTBQ2 community for decades of discrimination, persecution and repression of the collective. Addressing MPs, he said: “For the oppression of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender and dual-spirit communities, we apologize. On behalf of the government, parliament and the people of Canada :. We were wrong. We're sorry. Y we will never allow this to happen again"And without being able to contain the emotion, he began to cry.

Trudeau's apology referred especially to the people who were part of the federal public service, the Canadian army, the federal police and the spy agency between the years 1950 and 1990. Government authorities applied themselves to eradicating homosexual officials, which came to be called "Abnormal sexuality", because they considered that they were susceptible to Soviet blackmail during the period of the Cold War.

Trudeau's crying

A report from Eagle Canada of the 2016 explains that the federal police drew up a list of 9.000 suspects of homosexuality only in the Ottawa area. It also describes how they developed and used a contraption known as "Fruit machine" that scanned the retina to suspects of equivocal sexual orientation. It was observed if his pupils reacted to the observation of gay pornography.

All this repression resulted in dismissals, denunciations, rejections of professional promotions and other measures that ended up having a very negative impact on the lives of thousands of people, people who ended up losing their livelihood in the best of cases and at worst his life.

Recently the Canadian government has announced that it will allocate more than 78 million dollarss in response to the lawsuit filed by thousands of individuals affected by these measures.

The decriminalization of homosexuality in Canada dates from 1969. Two years before Pierre Trudeau, who would end up becoming prime minister and father of Justin Trudeau, presented the first bill in 1967 and pronounced the famous phrase "There is no place for the State in the beds of the nation" But it was still many years before the discriminatory policies of the government were finalized in an order to the army urging them to stop persecuting gays and lesbians. And that did not arrive until 1992, for that reason, although later, the tears of Trudeau are thanked today.

Munilla, the bishop who saw the devil (everywhere)

The bishop of San Sebastian, José Ignacio Munilla has returned to be the center of the controversy by statements in which he associates radical feminism with the devil as he did with gay

GAYLES.TV.- The intervention of Munilla occurred last Monday in the program Sixth Continent of Radio Maria. In them, the bishop opposes the strike called for March 8, arguing that he sees the hand of the devil in the ranks of the movement that promotes it. According to Munilla the so-called "Radical or gender feminism" his victim is the woman herself (…). It's funny how the devil can score a goal from his own ranks because feminism, having assumed the gender ideology, has become a kind of harakiri ”. The prelate justifies this statement by the fact that in countries such as China or India, abortion is used selectively, always becoming, according to Munilla, a "true female genocide." And he ends by assuring that "abortion has become the grave of women."

And for the highest ecclesiastical authority in San Sebastian, the claims associated with what he calls "radical feminism", that is, free and gratuitous abortion, premarital relationships or masturbation, are some of his star themes.

March strike 8

But of course, do not forget the LGTBI collective when it comes to throwing their poisoned darts in a totum revolutum that mixes lesbianism, bisexuality or termination of pregnancy. It would seem that Munilla is turned on attacking homosexuals. He has come to publish a book, "Sex with soul and body" in which, after affirming that homosexual practices "can not receive any approval", he lets go of pearls of the type "suffer a neurotic deviation and need a healing of affective wounds" that he claims we drag from childhood and adolescence. And here also ends the task with a stellar phrase: "They are objectively disordered."

Well, nothing, Mr. Bishop, read him, listen to him, know about his demonic hallucinations or his lucid fantasies is the most entertaining and stimulating. For example, their opinions on women who, according to the moment of the cycle, "may be more sensitive or susceptible, some of them are given by activity or cleanliness". (Yes, they are Munilla's words) Or young chaste men who repress their virility so "if they are very in love they can have disproportionate reactions like an ejaculation that neither expected nor wanted" ... what the bishop calls "a moral concern" , but nothing to run, what's going, where are you going to stop? That would be a sin!

Finally, Bishop, tomorrow we will stop, tomorrow we will demonstrate, tomorrow we will shout, sing and vindicate in the streets, in the homes, in the work places. But above all, tomorrow, Mr. Munilla, we will renounce the dust of so much cassock, where, more often than not, the devil is hidden.

Lorca or the pits of oblivion

They discover the place of execution and what should have been the grave of Federico García Lorca, but his body does not appear

EDITORIAL GAYLES.TV.-  Federico García Lorca and Luís Cernuda with different luck, origin, trajectory, poetry, generation and sexual orientation shared. Both Andalusians, belonging to the generation of the 27, homosexuals and with destinies truncated by the Francoism. Lorca took his life, Cernuda condemned him to exile, to live and die far from his homeland.

And today Cernuda comes to mind because of the way he picked up the famous rhyme of Bécquer, that "Where oblivion lives, there will be my grave" that Luis would transmute in verses that seem to gloss the memory of Lorca:

"Where oblivion lives,
In the vast gardens without aurora;
Where I am only
Memory of a stone buried among nettles
On which the wind escapes his insomnia".

These days Lorca has been news for two different reasons but linked together. On the one hand, we have learned that a multidisciplinary team of archaeologists and researchers believe they have located the place where Federico was shot along with a republican school teacher, Dióscoro Galindo and two anarcho-syndicalist banderilleros, Francisco Galadí and Joaquín Arcoyas. The same place where they were supposedly buried in the early morning 17 18 August 1936. But bodies are not.

The archeologist Francisco Javier Navarro he believes that the remains of the 4 shot were exhumed "around the time of their death, when they were in a cadaverous, not skeletal phase." Despite not having found organic remains in the area, a well in the vicinity of Alfacar (Granada), yes it was a fragment of a Máuser projectile and a bullet casing of contemporary manufacture to the date of the deaths and of habitual use in the Civil War, which confirms the conjectures on the fact that they had been used in the execution.

But mystery surrounds the reasons why the 4 bodies were exhumed. The most widespread theory holds that it was intended to erase all traces of a case that had "great repercussion in the international press" and that in fact involved "significant pressure on the rebel side and the subsequent Franco government." Other theories point to the possible intervention of Lorca's own family, which even today refuses to search for and possible exhumation of his body. There are reports of a policeman, named José Mingorance, who affirm that the death of the poet was more the "fruit of family quarrels" than of political issues. It seems that they exhaustively detail the exhumation of the corpse. But today we can only say that we know the place of events but not the whereabouts of the poet's remains.

And it is this ignorance that leads us to the second theme for which Lorca has been news: the presentation in the Berlinale of the US documentary "Bones of Contention" in which Andrea Weiss shows us an excellent research work on Franco's repression of homosexuals and the actLorca and Dalíual struggle for the recovery of historical memory. And precisely one of the plot threads of the story is that of the statement that García Lorca was murdered because of his condition as "homosexual and socialist" according to a 1965 police report that didn't come to light until a couple of years ago. This text confirms the fact that Lorca was a victim of Francoism and that his homosexuality had an important weight in the decision to end his life. But Weiss's work is not limited to the figure of the poet, but delves into two issues that run in parallel: on the one hand, the existence, still today, of 120.000 buried corpses, which are not forgotten, in wells, gutters and mass graves. and the fight to honor their memory and prevent them from falling into oblivion. And on the other, an exhaustive review of the repression of homosexuality in the Franco regime, the history of the struggles for the dignity of gays, lesbians and transsexuals and also their references: figures such as that of the actress Margarita Xirgu, friend of García Lorca or the journalist Irene Polo, brilliant and brave women that the Franco regime tried to bury in the memorial to the point of being known as the generation of "The disappeared".

And is that the story of the poet does not differ from the tens of thousands of lives buried among the roots of pines planted to erase their tracks. And therefore this text can not but end with the premonitory verses of Lorca himself:

"When the pure forms sank
under the cri cri of the daisies,
I understood that I had been killed.
They went through cafes and cemeteries and churches,
opened the barrels and the cabinets,
They smashed three skeletons to tear their teeth out of gold.
They did not find me anymore.
They did not find me?
No. They did not find me. "

Rio 2016: The most homophobic games?

The media take the gold medal to homophobia

EDITORIAL GAYLES.TV.- The 2016 River Olympics began with a declaration of intent in favor of the standardization. For the first time, five delegations carried the names transsexuals. Among them the model Read T, champion of the cause LGTB +, who represented the host country with pride and vindication. More figures that made us believe that these were the most multicolored Olympics in history: the participation of athletes LGTB + doubles the number of London 2012. In total they are 43 athletes who openly acknowledge their homosexuality. But the rainbow began to turn dark like the jumping pool ...

RIO 2016 LESBIAN MEGAN RAPINOEMegan Rapinoe, one of the star players of the US soccer team, reported being a victim of homophobic insults during matches. From the stand he heard "bicha", a Portuguese insult that in Spanish would be equivalent to "queer". Other athletes declared to have heard "puta" and "Zika" on the part of Brazilian fans. "I do not think all the party goers were homophobic, but I think there is complicity if they allow these songs to be made," Rapinoe said. At the moment the FIFA The package is drained since there has not been a complaint formally by any team.

Without a doubt, media coverage is leaving much to be desired. The gaffe of the Daily Beast yes it was Olympic. It turns out that one of its editors, Nico Hines, he could not think of a better way to do his job than by doing outing to the Rio athletes. RIO 2016 HOMOFOBIA DAILY BEAST NICO HINESThe popular app was downloaded Grinder and began collecting data and information to then publish an article entitled "I had three appointments by Grinder in one hour at the Olympic Village”. Brave headline coming from someone who takes other people's sexuality as a joke. Perhaps it seemed like investigative journalism when it was endangering the privacy and even the lives of some athletes. Let us remember that homosexuality is punishable by death in 12 countries. Criticism was not long in coming and finally the newspaper made a "mea culpa" and withdrew the article, replacing it with an editorial acknowledging its serious mistake.

As if it were not enough TeleSur TV echoed a survey on twitter with the hastag #GaysNoMerecenMedallas in which he wondered if they should exclude homosexual athletes from the Rio 2016 Olympic Games.

But not only the international media, in Spain Periodista Digital wanted to tell the emotional request of marriage to the Brazilian rugby player Isadora Cerullo. Well, to do so they referred to their partner Marjorie Enya as "her friend." Both in the text and in the caption it seems that they were embarrassed that it could be love and not friendship that was behind that gesture. For all the above we do not know if it is the most gay-friendly or the most homophobic games in the history of the Olympics, what is clear is that there are still many obstacles to overcome ...

The Pope responds to those who criticize the blessing for same-sex couples: "It is hypocrisy"

Pope Francis describes criticism of the blessing of homosexuals as “hypocrisy”: “No one is scandalized by a businessman who exploits people”

El pope francisco cross out «hypocrisy» criticizing the possibility of bless gay couples, while "Nobody is scandalized if I give my blessing to a businessman who perhaps exploits people and this is a very serious sin. "While people would be scandalized if I gave it to a homosexual... This is hypocrisy!", says Francisco. in an interview that will be published tomorrow in the Catholic magazine 'To believe'.

The pope adds that «the heart of the document is the reception«, in responding to criticism of 'Fiducia Supplians', the text published by the Congregation for the Doctrine of Faith in which it was explained that couples considered ' could be blessedirregular' for the Church, including those of the same sex.

The historic opening of pope francisco to the blessing of couples of the same sex or in a situation «irregular» as divorced and remarried, has been welcomed by many episcopal conferences in the world, but the most conservative wing describes it as «Blasphemy» and other bishops, such as the African ones, continue to show their rejection.

The church and women

The Pope responds to those who criticize the blessing for same-sex couples: "It is hypocrisy"In another of the advance extracts of the interview, the pope highlights that «open work in the Curia at of important«. «In the Roman Curia there are now several women because they perform certain roles better than us men.«Assures Francisco.

Also regarding his state of health, he repeats one of the phrases that he has said in recent months to reassure about his state of health and his mobility problems: «The Church is governed with the head, not with the legs«.

In the interview he also asks for a Church closer to the people: «People suffer a lot... we clerics sometimes live comfortably... we need to see the work, the suffering of the people«.

Although the openness to blessing couples of the same sex seems like a step forward within the Church, it is worth remembering that it maintains discrimination against non-heterosexual people and, in reality, does not constitute any progress on the path towards equality in Catholic Church. It continues to be given to people LGTBIQ+ and women a second-class deal.

Historic ruling on assisted reproduction allowance for two lesbians

The TSJC recognizes the right of a lesbian couple to assisted reproduction benefits

GAYLES.TV.- El TSJC has dictated the Judgment 100/2021 of January 18, which is an important step towards non-discrimination based on sex or sexual orientation, by recognizing the right of a married couple formed by women to be able to benefit from the coverage of the assisted human reproduction What does the mutual provide? MUFACE, as established for heterosexual couples, and without the need to present a medical report that proves the gynecological clinical reason for sterility.

In the resolution it is argued that «The purpose of assisted reproduction, in a marriage like that of the appellant, is precisely to help the gestation in view of the physical impossibility of achieving it naturally, which is clearly impossible«.

Historical judgment

According to Katty Pallas, president of FLG LGTBI Families, this sentence «It is novel and important because it recognizes the right of two women to receive assisted reproduction benefits from the mutual state officials, MUFACE«.

Clowns remember that "Until now, access to these techniques was totally restricted whether they had infertility problems or not. They did not have any type of coverage, it had to be paid. The ruling resolves that the requirement of sterility cannot be imposed on two lesbian women because it is discriminatory. ".

«The judgment of the TSJC establishes a precedent that will have a great and very positive impact on all those lesbian couples who want to start a family. Now the Social Security will have to modify the conditions of access to this right or interpret the requirements on a case-by-case basis and MUFACE will have to modify the catalog of benefits that it has established with the Mútuas with which it works. This is a very little visible fight but it will have a lot of repercussion for lesbian couples because Assisted reproduction can be done through Social Security and throughout the Spanish State. This is why it is so important.»

Gay marriage? Yes, I want

It is said that your wedding day is the most beautiful of your entire life. Perhaps if not the most beautiful day, one of the most special and memorable without a doubt. Give yourself the «Yes, I want»Is a step of commitment and love for those who have found that unique person, and who want to share in the celebration of the wedding with your family and friends.

Unfortunately, an act that should always be joyful and within the reach of all lovers can become a simple fantasy for some. The legalization of gay marriage it is one of the indicators of a country with true egalitarian politics. When the count of countries of this type stops at 18, we can not do anything but roll up our sleeves to continue with all the work that lies ahead.

This infographic of NeoMam Studios reviews the global panorama in terms of homosexual legislation. The initial map already gives us a clear idea. Europe and America make us smile. Africa and Arab countries make our hair stand on end. 7 countries where homosexuality is punished with death penalty, 69 where it is considered a crime that can be punished with the cárcel. These countries still have a long way to go to get to proclaim gay marriage legal.

But what surprises us is also to compare the map of legislation with this study Pew Research, which shows the degree of acceptance of homosexuality in the society of each country. We are happy to see Spain in first position, with a 88% degree of acceptance, but we would squeak that South Africa, a country that protects homosexual marriage, only have an 32% acceptance. Or the cases of Indonesia and Turkey, lay states that do not have laws in relation to the gay group, but in which, respectively, an 93% and an 91% of the population does not accept homosexuality. Laypeople, yes, but with the majority of the Muslim population ... Entering into debates of any religion is already out of hand, because in some cases we would not speak only of recognition of rights regardless of sexual inclination. It would be necessary to start with something as basic and fundamental as the rights of women ...

Returning to the issue of gay marriage, just as important is that the legislation is permissive as that the society integrate this reality. And here we emphasize the issue of Education. Yes, young people are the future, but if they are not taught that love is equally valid between boys and girls than girls, they will never appreciate the beauty of a wedding in which there are two boyfriends. We see it in the famous children video reacting before marriage proposals between homosexual couples, where some directly see it as something very romantic and spectacular, and others focus on the "oddity" that the protagonists are of the same sex.

The struggle for equal rights in marriage lies in that abolition of prejudices with which all the LGTB collective dream. Open the mind, break barriers, forget discrimination, shake off the concept of "normal" ... We end this reflection by recalling that video of Get Up! Australia, who claimed the laws in favor of gay marriage with a very simple and clear message: It's time.

LGTBIQ+ summary of 2022

Balance of 2022, a year marked by the Trans Law, the World Cup in Qatar and monkey pox

The calendar comes to an end and traditions are imposed. It is time to take stock of a year, 2022, which will surely be remembered for the Trans Law, monkey pox and the Qatar World Cup. As always there has been violence and LGTBIphobia, many times instigated by the rise of an extreme right that has settled in to stay and shamelessly attacks the LGTBI collective. Luckily the visibility is increasing and we advance in rights.

TRANS LAW

Congress passes the Trans LawEl Draft Law for the real and effective equality of trans people and for the guarantee of the rights of LGTBI people, popularly known as Trans LawWas finally approved by Congress. It came out ahead with 188 votes in favor of the government partners, 150 against PP and Vox, and seven abstentions; among them, that of the socialist Carmen Calvo, the figure socialist more visible in terms of opposition to this law. The TERFs were protagonists of the year, but the balance fell on the side of Irene Montero, which was firm and did not succumb to the sewers. It has been a victory trans fight, who knew how to group together and not give up until they achieved a hard-fought law. La self determination It was one of the stumbling blocks that divided the government, but it was finally achieved. The recognition of non-binary people was left out, "intragender violence" and some other concessions, but one of the most advanced trans laws in the world was achieved.

THE WORLD OF SHAME

Spain will not support the LGTBI community in QatarQatar imposed its law and we watched with astonishment as Leo Messi (best player in history), lifted the title of world champion with a five that covered the Argentine shirt. Undoubtedly the metaphor of world of shame which before starting I already warned which «homosexuality is not authorized in the country«. as stated Nasser Al Khater, head of the Organizing Committee. Shy were the complaints from some teams or journalists who wanted to denounce the LGBTIphobia, tutelage to women or 15.000 workers who died for the world, according to Amnesty International. for more shame, Spain he stood aside and did not support the collective LGTBIQ + in any moment.

MONKEYPOX

The LGTBI collective asks that it not be linked to monkeypoxIt was 2022, but many went back to the eighties with the monkey pox. Bill stigma that looked like a screen passed, appeared again to point out gays as risk factoreither. The experts recalled that it is not a disease typical of the homosexual group. The fact that one of the initial sources of the outbreak was detected in a gay sauna, put the diana to the homosexual group. The health authorities, politicians and the media had to be asked to be responsible for not identifying the group LGTBIQ +, and specifically, men who have sex with other men, as a risk group for mon poxo.

LGBT PHOBIA AND THE EXTREME RIGHT

In October, a young neo-Nazi who subsequently committed suicide, entered a club LGBTI of Bratislava and killed two people and left a serious injury. They are the consequences of the germ of the extreme right, which is internationally organized and attacks when it can. Giorgia Meloni pronounced in Marbella hate speech against the LGTBIQ+ collective and the feminist movement.

BISEXUAL VISIBILITY

Susan Sarandon comes out as bisexualIn 2022 "Less than half of the adolescents in Barcelona declare that they are exclusively heterosexual", According to a survey. We went from being a minority to being the norm. Nicole Kidman He declared himself bisexual and confirmed an affair with Naomi Watts, Susan Sarandon took advantage of the Jimmy Fallon program to publicly declare his bisexuality,the book "Marilyn Monroe: My little secret told by Jane Lawrence, "InTerry Jerris, revealed unknown relationships of the actress with other women and unfortunately, the protagonist of “heart stopper" Connor kit he is forced to say that he is bisexual.

Vox appeals the Trans Law

Vox has filed an appeal for unconstitutionality against the Trans Law because it considers it to be "abhorrent" and "unprotects" women

Vox has presented this Wednesday at the Constitutional Court a resource against the entire Trans Law. The challenge, signed by the parliamentary group, maintains that the aforementioned norm raises numerous reasons for unconstitutionality and what with her "freedom of expression, ideological freedom and even freedom of business are limited in an unbearable way in our rule of law”. This initiative of Vox It represents the appeal number 47 that he presents in the current legislature against all kinds of laws promoted by the Government and approved by the Parliament.

The appeal disputes that the Law for the real and effective equality of trans people and for the guarantee of the rights of LGTBI people allow the decision of the minor from 12 to 16 years old “without permission or advice from their parents (nor from a medical report and advice) in a matter of such importance as the removal or modification of the genital apparatus”; and he adds that with this not only "prevents parents from exercising their right and duty to guide, advise and accompany their minor children, but also their right to receive that help and assistance”. This is, however, a matter not contemplated in the law, which only talks about the administrative procedures to change the sex and name box in the Civil Registry and does not extend to the health field.

Vox Resource

Vox estimates that the law supposes “the absolute interference of the State in spheres that should remain strictly personal”, because it suggests that the refusal of the parents “to assume uncritically the vision of their children is considered as an indication of risk for the minor”. The challenge is also based on the consideration that "It is not for teachers, editors, or the Administration to determine, but rather for parents (...) the incorporation of materials on LGTBI sexual orientation in school material".

Self determination

Vox appeals to the Constitutional Court the Trans LawThe ultra-right also considers the content of article 44.3 of the law particularly serious, since “allows any person to request a registry change of their sex without having to prove anything in this regard, except their mere willingness to do so". Vox considers that this violates the principle of legal certainty, with consequences such as those of "a surprising increase in requests to change the registered sex, among others, in the prison population”. So far, officially, it consists a request to the management of a penitentiary center by an inmate, in Asturias.

Vox considers that the new legislation infringes “the principle of legal security and criminal legality, the right to equality, freedom of thought or ideology, academic freedom" And the expression freedom, "as an institutional guarantee of other rights".

The PP will resort to the Constitutional the 'trans law' to the slipstream of Vox

El PP will also appeal the Trans Law of the Government in the Constitutional Court. The party's legal services are currently drafting the appeal, which they will make public when it is completely ready. The match of Alberto Nunez Feijoo has been very critical of this rule, which together with the law of 'only yes is yes'', constitute the main flags of the Ministry of Equality directed Irene Montero.

In December, with the first approval of the law in Congress (later it went to the Senate and in February it returned to the Lower House for its final green light) the main conservative leaders already launched very harsh reproaches, assuring that they saw "unconstitutional” various issues included in the standard that recognizes the gender self-determination for the first time in Spain.

Heliogábalus will be recognized as a trans woman

A British museum will recognize the Roman emperor Heliogabalus as a trans woman

The English Museum of North Hertfordshire will refer to the Roman emperor Heliogábalo as trans woman hereinafter. This decision is based on historical references that mention their behaviors “effeminate” for Roman society: according to classical historians Heliogábalo wore women's clothing, makeup and wigs; and at times he referred to himself as “a lady".

The decision, according to a museum spokeswoman, seeks to “be polite and respectful of the way people of the past identified themselves”. However, not all historians agree with redefining the gender identity of Heliogábalo, since no first-person source survives that could clarify how he felt about it.

Who was Elagabalus?

Heliogábalus will be recognized as a trans womanHeliogábalo He became emperor in 218 AD, at the age of 14, and held office until 222, when he was deposed and murdered. As he had experienced with previous emperors, he had behavior that for the Roman aristocracy was very eccentric. He is mainly known for his attempt to impose an Eastern god as the main deity of the Roman pantheon above Jupiter: El Gabal, from which he took his new name.

But more than that, what really scandalized the Roman nobility was his non-normative behavior and his alleged sexual promiscuity: according to the historian Dio Cassius, Heliogábalo he dressed as a woman, wore wigs and makeup and shaved his hair; She organized orgies in the palace and even disguised herself as a prostitute to go to the brothels. In a society that valued virility as something fundamental in men, this was unacceptable, especially when it came to the emperor. The same author also points out that she preferred to be called domina (ma'am), which is why her status has been debated for so long. gender identity.

The chronicles of Dio Cassius They claim that he was married five times. Four of them with women and the last with Hiercoles, former slave and charioteer. For this last marriage, 'the emperor'was given in marriage as “wife, lover and queen”. The Heliogábalo It has even been said that he offered astronomical amounts of money to the doctor who was able to replace his male genitalia for female ones.

The decision was made after consultation with the charity LGTBIQ+ Stonewall with the aim that “exhibitions, advertising and talks are as current and inclusive as possible".
