The suicide of Leelah Alcorn
Finally we are going to have to put aside the good news and it is that doing it today would be tantamount to betraying the last will of Leelah Alcorn, a girl from 17 years ago who just a week ago took her own life by not being able to endure living in a body that did not belong to her.
Leelah discovered at a very young age that something was not right in his life, but it was in the 14 years when, after hearing about transgender people, he decided to tell his parents looking for support to become who he really felt he was. But her parents, practicing Catholics, not only refused her help but isolated her by closing her social networks, led her to Christian therapists who tried to get her out of "her error" and even distanced her friends by changing her from school. Leelah fell into a deep depression of which he testified in a shocking letter in which accuses his parents and religion of his tragic end.
The minor was hit by a tractor trailer on I-71 in Warren County, a few miles from her home and police are investigating the circumstances of the accident, but everything indicates that it was a suicide. Leelah's mother, Carla Alcorn, in a Facebook post wrote “my son went home to heaven this morning. He went to walk early in the morning and was hit by a truck”. Later, in an interview with CNN, he stated that “We did not support that because of religion but we told him that we loved him unconditionally. We love it no matter what. I love my son. People need to know that I love him. He was a good boy, a good boy. At all times in his statements, he has referred to Leelah with masculine pronouns and naming him after his son. In the same interview, he added that, even if they wanted to, they did not have the resources to finance a sex change and that they had decided to close Leelah's profiles on social media, considering that they contained inappropriate material.
Given that in her long letter of suicide the girl commented that her intention was that her death would contribute to raising awareness about the situation of transgender people, on petitions website Change.org a campaign of collection of signatures for that purpose.
Despite the extension of the text and out of respect for Leelah's will, we have decided to reproduce here in full and without modifications, the text that you left written.
THE LETTER OF LEELAH
If you are reading this it means that i have committed suicide and obviously I have not been able to delete this post from the queue.
Please do not be sad; it's for my own good. The life I would have lived was not worth living ... because I am transgender. I could explain in detail why I feel this way, but this note is probably going to be long enough in itself. In simple words: I feel like a girl trapped in a boy's body, and I have felt like this since I was four years old. I never knew there was a word for this feeling, or that it was possible for a boy to become a girl, so I never told anyone and I just kept doing the typical things that a guy does to try to fit in.
When I was 14 years old I learned what transgender meant and I cried with happiness. After ten years of confusion, I finally understood what I was. Immediately, I told my mother, and she reacted in a deeply negative way, telling me that it was a phase, that I would never really want to become a girl, that God does not make mistakes and that I was wrong. If you are reading this and are parents, please do not tell that to your children. Even if they are Christians or against transgender people, they never tell anyone, and even less so to their children, because they will only get them to hate themselves. That is exactly what happened to me.
My mother inhe asked 
to take me to a therapist, but it would only take me to a Christian (which have a big bias), so I never really had access to the therapy I really needed to overcome my depression. I only got more Christians telling me that was a selfish yeI was wrong, I had to go to God to get help.
When I was 16 years I assumed that my parents would never understand me, and that I had to wait at least until the 18 to start any type of gender transition treatment, which broke my soul completely. The longer you wait, the more difficult the transition is. I felt hopeless, that I would continue to see myself physically as a man in disguise for the rest of my life. On my birthday numberor 16, when I did not get the consent of my parents to begin the transition, I cried myself to sleep.
I developed an eskind of attitude * that was ... * towards my parents and I declared myself publicly homosexual at school, thinking that maybe if I decided to declare myself as trans I would have a lesser impact. Although my friends reacted positively, my parents got angry. They they thought it was attacking his image and what I wanted was to embarrass them. They wanted it to be the perfect normal Christian child, and that obviously was not what I wanted.
So they got me out of public school, they took My computer y my phone and I was banned from using any kind of social network, isolating me completely from my friends. This was probably the time of my life in which I was most depressed, and I am surprised that I did not commit suicide. I was completely single for five months. Without friends, without support or understanding, without love. Only with the disagreement of my parents and the cruelty of loneliness.
At the end of the academic year, my parents finally returned my phone and allowed me to go back to social networks. I was excited, I finally had my friends back. They were extremely excited to see me and talk to me, but only at the beginning. Over time I realized that they did not care the slightest for me, and I felt even more alone than I had felt at first. The only friends I thought I had, they only liked because they saw me five times a week.
After a summerpractically without friends, plus the weight of having to think about college, save money to move, keep my grades, go to church every week and feel like shit because everyone there was against everything so I lived, I decided that he had had enough. I will never be able to make a successful transition, even when I move. I will never be happy with the way I look or dream. I will never have enough friends. I will never have enough love. I will never find a a man that loves me I will never be happy. Live the rest of my life as a lonely man who would like to be a woman, or live the rest of my life as a lonely woman who hates herself. There is no way to win. No exit. I'm already depressed enoughI do not need my life to become worse. People say it will improve, but that in my case is not true. It's going to get worse. Every day I'm worse.
This is the quid (essential point), that's why I feel like committing suicide. Sorry if that is not a good enough reason for you, but for me it is. AnsI want the 100% of everything legally owned to be sold, and the money (along with my money in the bank) is donated to civil rights movements for transsexuals and support groups, I do not care a cocoon to which. The only way to rest in peace is that one day transgender people not be treated in the same way as I have been, but be treated as human beings, with valid feelings, with rights. Gender should be taught in schools, the earlier the better. My death must mean something. My death must add to the number of transgender people who committed suicide this year. I want someone to bother looking at that number and say this is screwed up and fix it. That fix society. Please.
(Leelah) Josh Alcorn
May peace rest Leelah.

The PP and Vox agreement modifies a point on LGTBI rights
GAYLES.TV.- Nothing is free in politics. The agreement between PP y Vox to support the popular investiture José Luis Martínez Almeida As the new mayor of the city he also has a price. Without a doubt, the collective LGTBI will suffer the effects of the arrival of the extreme right to power. At the moment, the point 41 which talks about rights LGTBI and violence against women by making the abbreviations disappear LGTBI and changing the name "sexist violence". And of course, all with the blessing of Ciudadanos.
In less than 48 hours you already want to load Central Madrid and they break with the PP en Madrid «until the agreement is fulfilled«. That is, the councils claim that, according to the president Santiago Abascal, they agreed with PP. It is clear that they have not come shopping, they want quotas of power and make noise, a lot of noise.
Language is important and a great manipulation tool. First battle lost since they have modified the visibility of the group. «We will guarantee equality of opportunities between women and men, we will defend the rights of LGTBI people and we will eradicate the social scourge of sexist violence in our cities«, Pick up the point 41 of the agreement PP-Citizens. A text that should be combined with that of PP-Vox: "We will fight for equal rights, obligations, and opportunities between women and men, so that there can be no discrimination based on age, birth, race, sex, religion, opinion or any other condition or personal or social circumstance«. Again, the male violence, but also any mention of the collective LGTBI, while emphasizing "obligations." Not to mention that "we will guarantee" is replaced by "we will fight" (if VOX is to fight for our rights, who can for himself).
In addition, after the announcement of the composition of the Local government for the 2019-2023 legislature, it is observed that the areas of Territorial Coordination and Public Social Cooperation disappear, and Gender and Diversity Policies. The first is integrated in the vice-hall, and the second in Family and Wellbeing. The priorities are thus marked.
En Andalusia They have taken more time and they have taken advantage of it to be noticed. In a parliamentary commission last Wednesday, the far-right leader denounced the complaints that he had received from teachers and parents of school Andalusians about the type of sex education they receive in the classroom "Is that what children are told? Affective sexual diversity, promote homosexual relationships among children under 10 years old"He assured.
The statements of the leader join those of the candidate of Vox to Region of Madrid, Rocío Monasteriowho recently denounced that in the schools of Madrid imposes "the doctrine of gender ideology to children with 8 years" In addition, according to Monastery, they are invited to "try new sexual practices and explain them to others" and that "there is talk of zoophilia and paraphilias".
They are already taking time to make the GIF: the girl from «Poltergeist» in front of a screen with those from VOX saying that of: «They are already here ………”

A lesbian from Alicante is denied biological motherhood for not being married
The surrogate mother has had to register the common child in Alicante as a single mother
A lesbian couple who had a child with the method CLOTHING have met with the categorical refusal from the Civil Registry of Alicante to register them as biological mothers. The surrogate mother has had to register the joint child as a single mother, and her partner is actually only allowed to adopt him. Those affected have filed a discrimination complaint.
"I get out of the Civil Registry of Alicante without a child and fearing for my job”, denounced one of the mothers. «It's outrageous and absolutely discriminatory«, they lament.
And they have decided to bring it to light because they are convinced that there will be a flood of similar cases, since recently, on July 14, 2022, the Law for Equal Treatment and Non-Discrimination, introduced the possibility of having a child by the ROPA method, as is your case, without the need to be married.
Even in the hospital where they gave birth, the health workers tried as normal to register the child as usual, "and they had to call us because the program did not allow them the option since they were not married, although they also assured us that in the Civil Registry of Alicante we weren't going to have a problem«, they report.
They have lived together for five years, and as a common-law couple they are legally registered in the Civil Registry from the province for two years, at the same window where they are now being denied the registration of their joint child as mothers.
A clear case of discrimination in Alicante
«Officials admit to us that it is discriminatory. They told us in the Registry that if we were a man and a woman it is neither necessary to be a common-law couple nor to get married. But that there is a law that, as a couple of women, forces us to be married, contrary to what happens to heterosexual couples”, they warn.
They have put the matter in the hands of lawyers and, from the outset, have filed a formal complaint with the Ministry of Justice «for discriminating against us as a homosexual couple when registering our son. We have not been able to register it because we are not married, despite being a common-law partner since December 2020. If we had been a heterosexual couple, they would have allowed us to register it without having to be a common-law couple or being married", they claim.
They even report cases «of couples of friends who have registered their child as both, without the need to present any proof«. And in her case, even the baby is the biological son of the one she gave the egg to. pregnant mom.
«adoptive mother of his biological son.
«It is an emotional stick for both of us, in addition to feeling discriminated against", they emphasize. His son is not on paper. «We want this terrible experience to be of some use to future mothers who, like us, are common-law couples but have not married.or”, they denounce.
And that the public administration take note of the aberration that it entails «to see your child born, from an ovum of yours, but have to register it as adopted«. «Adoptive mother of her biological son, in which head does it fitthey wonder.
Legal complications at work
Documentation as a common-law couple and the birth of the baby were enough for her company to grant her maternity leave, but having been denied the registration of the child as a mother for all purposes, the situation has changed. «I can prove with papers in any court that I am the biological mother, but they won't let me register it"he reiterates.
Suddenly it has been seenlow only virtuall», and because of the short time he has been in that job, he even thought that he would be fired, and with a newborn son. Fortunately it has not been like that, but she has had to return to work immediately and resign herself as «adoptive mother«.
The «shit» of Time Magazine
Time has received criticism for using the gay flag on trans issues
GAYLES.TV.- The prestigious magazine Time wanted to address in its May 30 issue the controversy over the use of toilets by the people transsexuals in United States. Recall that the HB2 Act recently approved in North Carolina it forces transsexuals to use the toilets in public buildings according to their original sex. The article of Michael Scherer that appears prominently on the cover is titled "Battle of the Bathroom" and the magazine's designers decided to illustrate it with six colored toilet paper rolls arranged as if they were the gay flag.
Critics on the networks soon arrived questioning why the magazine had decided to use the LGTB + symbol for an exclusively trans question. The trans flag was created by Monica Helms, a transgender woman, in 1999. The stripes on the upper and lower part are blue, generally associated with the masculine and the pink stripes symbolize the feminine part. The middle stripe is white for those who are intersex, transitional or considered to be gender neutral or undefined. The pattern is such that it does not matter which way to fly because it is always correct. The flag was first flown in 2000 in Phoenix, Arizona.
But apparently those of Time magazine did not know of its existence or have simply had a slip that has cost them to be the target of ironies on Twitter. The user Rachel sharp (@WrrrdNrrrdGrrrl), a writer from New York, redesigned the cover as it should have been, highlighting in a tweet that it had only taken ten seconds to do it using free software. In the image we can see on the left the original cover of Time and on the right the version of the Twitter feed. It is good that the mainstream media deal with the collective's issues, but it is unforgivable that a magazine as reputable as Time makes this type of mistakes on its cover.

In addition, the authorities and staff of the Executive power They must be trained to prevent discriminatory behavior.
Among the bases of the measure, the decree considers that “It is vitally important to transform the structural pattern of inequality that perpetuates the exclusion of this population, which has a life expectancy of approximately 35-40 years”. It is estimated that 95% of trans people They do not have access to registered employment and about 60% have not been able to finish their secondary studies.

«Historic day»
The undersecretary of Diversity Policies of the Ministry of Women, Gender and Diversity, Alba Rueda, has declared to the newspaper Clarín: "It is a historic day for all of our society because it implies the recognition of the State about its responsibility in generating responses to structural inequality. Answers that have to do with rights protection and, mainly, because, in this case, they address one of the fundamental axes of inequality from a gender and diversity perspective.
«Transvestites, transsexuals and transgender people have lived throughout our lives, throughout Argentine history, a lot of violence. And this violence was effectively translated, not only in an expulsion, many times, from our family environments, but also within other areas such as education, health and work ", concludes Wheel.

Olympic Gais in Rio
The real gods of the stadium dazzle in Rio
GAYLES.TV.- A few days ago we told you an excellent news: the number of LGBTI athletes out of the closet participating in the Olympics in Rio de Janeiro has doubled in relation to the past London Games of the 2012. And we told you in the article "Olympic Lesbians"You can recover by following the link. We gave priority to girls because the percentage of athletes who have seen their homosexuality is overwhelming in relation to boys, almost three quarters are lesbians.
But that does not mean that some have not been brave enough to take the step and today we bring some of their names and especially their photos, because the truth is that the boys have a body of heart attack.
So without further ado we start the list and we do it with Jeffrey Wammes, a gymnast from the Netherlands who with 66 kg and 1'71 meters of stature has possibilities of classification in masculine soil, but the truth is that he has won out in the article for the photo, so we are going to fool !
A discipline very well represented by gays in these games is the trampoline jump. Ian Matos of 24 years representing Brazil, came out of the closet in an interview to the newspaper the "Correio" ignoring his friends who advised him to wait to pass the Olympic Games 2016. The boy only hopes that his position does not pass bill when it comes to getting sponsorships.
Another great diver (yes, that's the name that trampoline jumpers receive!) Is the media Thomas Daley representing Great Britain, which, incidentally, is the delegation with the largest presence of LGTBI participants. Tom has for the moment already harvested the bronze in 10 meters synchronized male. In his country is an authentic legend, that of a life that deserves a separate article.
And a Spaniard who came out of the closet shortly before concentrating for the Rio Games. We talked about the Real Canoe player of water polo Víctor Gutierrez that to his 25 years he has declared "As a homosexual athlete, I feel the responsibility to give the face". Thank you, Victor and good luck!
And we close this selection with the Canadian Connor Taras, kayaker with a long history of LGBTI fighting. He currently serves as ambassador for the Canadian Olympic Committee in the One Team's initiative that aims to combat homophobia in sport.
It is evident that in this selection are not all that are but we can assure you that yes they are all that are.
Happy Olympic Games!

In memoriam
NEWS.- Today, January 27, the International Day in Memory of the Victims of the Holocaust and the Prevention of Crimes against Humanity. It was a January 27 1945 when Soviet troops liberated the Auschwitz death camp, where several million people were killed. killed for being Jews, gypsies, disabled people, homosexuals or for their political ideology. In this way the existence of the Nazi extermination camps was put an end and for that reason since then this date is considered as the day of the end of the Holocaust.
Despite not having an exact figure, it is estimated that the order from 5.000 to 15.000 homosexuals were interned in concentration camps. Their identification symbol, which distinguished them from the rest of the prisoners, was a pink triangle that they had sewn to their suit and which has since become a symbol of the struggle of the international homosexual movement. It should be borne in mind that homosexuals occupied the lower ranks of the system in detention camps, which meant that they were treated cruelly by SS guards and other prisoners.
The last 23 of January, the Jewish Community of Madrid and the Assembly of Madrid, they celebrated a tribute ceremony in which the Collective LGBT of the Community of Madrid, COLEGA- MADRID, was invited one more year to light one of the candles in memory of the non-Jewish victims who were killed during the holocaust.
Samir Bargachi, president of COLEGA, He said: "For COLEGA-MADRID, the celebration of this day is of special importance since it highlights the hatred and harassment that minorities suffer in totalitarian regimes. We can not stop forgetting gays, lesbians, bisexuals and transsexuals who are currently being persecuted in many parts of the world, deprived of liberty, assaulted, insulted, when not executed and killed. The recent cruel and brutal assassinations of homosexuals by the Islamic State in Iraq and Syria, throwing them out of buildings and then finishing them off with stones, reminds us that we must not lower our guard in demanding respect for human rights in all parts of the world. world. Together we can make the bleeding of LGBT cease to be a harsh reality to become a memory and commemoration. "
From Gayles.tv, we sympathize with this tribute and we light a symbolic candle in memory of the victims of the holocaust Nazi and all subsequent holocausts. I hope the future will not bring us more atrocities of this caliber anywhere in the world.

In statements to the newspaper "The Globe", the businesswoman said: "We are a family. Our union is the fruit of love. I'm going to get pregnant and we're getting ready for that, even financially. Legalization is a way for neither the baby nor any of us to be left homeless. We want to enjoy the rights that
that everyone has, like maternity leave. "
Fernanda de Freitas Leitao which is the notary who has formalized the document recognizing the union of the three women affirms that it is based on the foundations of the Supreme Court to recognize the gay couples in force since the 2011. "The pillar that underlies any family relationship is affection. And these three women have everything to form a family: love, a lasting relationship, intention to have children ... In private law, in addition, what is not prohibited is allowed. I can not guarantee immediate rights to them, they will have to fight in the courts to make the declaration of the joint rent or to contract a medical insurance, but now they are protected ", argues Freitas.
Given that the Brazilian courts lack a specific jurisdiction for this type of union, there are many discordant voices that have been heard these days. According Regina Beatriz Tavares, lawyer specializing in family law, "Polygamy in Brazil has no constitutional support. I do not defend a single type of family, but the principle of union is always restricted to monogamous relationships, Brazilian society does not accept marriages of three people, regardless of sex. For his part, the Notaries Association of Brazil he disassociates himself from the decisions of his colleagues in a personal capacity as he did in a union held at the 2012 also among three women.
This situation occurs in a Congress divided by the pressure exerted by conservative politicians to preserve the traditional family model against a social reality that denies them. In relation to the year 1980 when 75% of households were made up of heterosexual marriages with children, today the new types of family (homosexuals, single mothers, marriages without children, etc…) account for 56% of the total.
The debate on what is already known as "Polyamory" is served and in this question, as in so many others that occupy us in this page, it is proved that the movement is shown walking.
Happy and long life then to this family !!

Alphabet soup
The use of acronym It has defenders and detractors. Some believe it confuses the less informed and others who play a role policy and integration. The use of the term has now been extended LGTB to refer to individuals of a non-heterosexual orientation, specifically lesbians, gays, transsexuals and bisexuals. Its progressive implementation has also been a source of controversy, to some they seem too politically correct for trying to accommodate options that have not always exactly gone hand in hand, but there are also those who feel excluded.
Several attempts have been made to expand the number of letters. The first one was with the Q of "Queer" which was intended to encompass all those who did not feel identified, then came the 3 T of transsexual , transgender and transvestite, the P of pansexual y polyamorousthe A of strategic heterosexuals and the O of omnisexuals. In short, an authentic soup of letters that threatens to turn the term into something so unpronounceable as unacceptable by the people represented.
Some LGTB media have chosen to include the I that refers to people intersex. The recent recognition of intersexuality as a gender option in the case of Australia and the debate that has originated in other countries, endorses this option that from Gayles.tv we support. From now on we will adopt the aforementioned term LGTBI to refer to the set of non-heterosexual groups, hoping to contribute to the greater knowledge and acceptance of all options.

10 years in family!
NEWS.- Today they are fulfilled 10 years of the approval of a law that supposed a gigantic step in the rights of the LGTB families, the Law 3 / 2005 of the Parlament of Catalonia that allows the joint adoption to the couples of gays and lesbians.
This law has meant equalizing all children in Catalonia in rights. Things that seem to us as common today as the fact of being able to sign a permit to go on a field trip or pick them up at the exit of class and others not so banal as being able to put the two surnames of the couple to their descendants or that the creatures to recognize their inheritance rights or to enjoy health benefits regardless of whether they have two parents or two mothers. The law also protects their rights in case of separation of their parents. In short, what is celebrated today is that 10 makes years that everyone, without exception, can enjoy their parents and legal mothers to 100%, when until then only one member of the pair legally consisted as such.
Also from that moment, lesbian and gay couples have been able to adopt directly as a couple and the creatures born of lesbian mothers have seen the two mothers recognized in the family book.
But the laws are a dead letter if they do not profoundly affect the transformation of society and today more than ever, we must continue to watch to eradicate any form of homophobia, especially in the field of education. Homophobic bullying is no joke and it affects not only those who feel gay or lesbian but also members of homoparental families. We must increase vigilance in the face of these facts and the resources to include affective-sexual diversity and family diversity in education.
Little by little and in the course of these years the presence of all types of families in our society has normalized, but we must not forget that the achievement of this achievement was years of effort and struggle by LGTB entities, political parties and other members from the civil society gave their support. We especially want to name here the task of "FLG Associació de Famílies Lesbianes i Gais" which since its inception in November 2001 has not ceased to work for the legalization and integration of all forms of family. Gayles.tv made a few months ago the report "LGTB families, adding families of colors!" that you can see again here
Today we want to join this celebration and wish a very happy day to those who have been able and can see their dream of creating a family realized.

"The Danish Girl", Eddie Redmayne in the role of a transsexual woman
GAYLES.TV.- Yesterday the official trailer of what promises to be one of the highlights of the Venice festival that starts today was released, "The Danish Girl" by director Tom Hooper, known for "Les Miserables" and "The King's Speech".
The film tells the story of the Danish illustrator and painter Einar Wegener that happened to the history for being the first person who underwent a sex reassignment operation in the 1930 year. The actor Eddie Redmayne, winner of an Oscar in the last edition for his role as Stephen Hawking in "The Theory of Everything," gives life to the character of Einar who will eventually become Lili. Wegener suffered up to 5 interventions, always counting on the support of his wife, the also painter Gerda Gottieb played by the Swedish revelation actress Alicia Vikander.
The film project has lasted for 15 years and directors such as Tomas Alfredson or Lassse Hallström have passed through it, but it comes at a very opportune moment due to the visibility that is being given to the issue of transsexuality both in film and in television series . Still, the film has been controversial even before its release. The most skeptical about the benefits of Hollywood criticize the fact that transsexual actors are not taken into account when it comes to embodying transsexuals. The protagonist, Eddie Redmayne, has come out of the controversy explaining that: “One of the complications is that today there are hormones, and many trans women have taken hormones. In this role you have to play a male side without hormones, and it is a subject that we have discussed a lot, because in those days there were no hormones.
Based on the novel by David Ebershoff, "The Danish Girl" narrates not only Einar's struggle to be who she is, but also the extraordinary love story of a married couple facing their relationship in the context of a gender reassignment. Their efforts led the couple to obtain from the King of Denmark the annulment of the marriage and a passport in accordance with the new identity of Lili.
After its premiere in Venice, the film can be seen in Toronto and the next November 27 will be released in the USA. The premiere in Spain is planned for 15 / 1 / 2016.

A story that repeats itself every year
El Pride It is held in Istanbul since 2003 and little by little the number of protesters has been increasing. "In 2009 we only attended about 200 people. The police cornered us and invested us with armored vehicles. This year we are 5.000. People are slowly losing their fear, but there is still a lot to do", recalled the French activist known by the nickname of Kaptain Bear.
En 2014 gathered some 15.000 people and it was the following year, in 2015, when it was first banned. As on this occasion the police fired tear gas to disperse the participants. For this reason the associations of the collective decided to cancel in 2016 the March.

Trans Law: self-determination is not touched
The PSOE assures that it will not touch gender self-determination and maintains its doubts about intra-gender violence
The address of the PSOE has decided to settle the debate on the Trans Law, in an attempt to end the internal shock that has caused in the party. The Socialists have abandoned this Thursday their lack of definition on the most controversial aspects of the project such as self-determination and have decided not to wait for the presentation of amendments to the text that will be debated in the Congressional Equality Commission to announce that they will not question their essential part.
As stated in the text that was approved by the Council of Ministers, therefore, from the age of 16, any trans person will be able to change the registration mention of sex in the registry without the need, as until now, to undergo therapy treatments. As of the approval of the law, the process will consist of going to the registry, making the request and in a maximum period of 4 months it will have to be resolved.
The parliamentary amendments PSOE will be primarily focused on Article 65 of the draft, specifically the one that mentions the application of the law of gender violence, since the greatest concern in the socialist ranks has to do with the comparison of other forms of violence with gender violence.
Delay in processing
El PSOE assumes that the PP y Vox will appeal the future law in the Constitutional Court and that is why they want to give it the greatest legal certainty. "ANDhe legislature can improve the law and make it more robust against attacks from those who are true enemies of the rights of groups”, Socialist sources point out to justify the orientation that their amendments will have.
The lack of agreement on PSOE was delaying the processing of the law, raised in principle by the urgent route. Last Monday, the Socialists joined the PP to extend the period for tabling amendments, a way of freezing the debate. Now the first government party assures that will not hinder your processing, although the immediate priority is to advance the negotiation on the State budgets.
Irene Montero: "We are not going to allow any setback"
Before knowing the official socialist position, the author of the project, IRene Montero, had once again demanded that the parliamentary process begin. Huntsman He indicated that he would not accept opening debates that question “central aspects of the law". "We are not going to consent to any setback in rights with respect to what is agreed in the text of the law, because this is a great social and also political consensus”, declared Huntsman. Yolanda Diaz insisted in very similar terms:Not a step back with this norm, speed".
For its part, the State Federation of Lesbians, Gays, Trans, Bisexuals, Intersexuals and more (Felgtbi+), Chrysallis and Fundación Triángulo defended this Wednesday the “absolute urgency” to pass the Trans Law and warned that they will not allow “debates are reopened on issues already agreed upon, which involved a lot of work, effort and compromise on all sides"
Feijoo vows to repeal trans law if passed
Alberto Nunez Feijoo considers that the trans law is "a frivolity that affects the rights of women that affects the rights of children and that makes a joke of a good part of the basic principles of human dignity”.
The leader of the opposition has promised to repeal the norm in the event that it is finally approved in the Congress of Deputies and PP have enough votes in the next elections.
“I perfectly understand the feminist movements that what they seek is an equality that I subscribe to between genders and what I cannot understand is the frivolity that adolescents, people even without legal age, can simply by a decision not even thought out, nor even under the supervision of health professionals, take hormones or carry out irreversible surgical interventions”, has declared feijoo.
The most diverse Coca-Cola ad in the Super Bowl
Diversity is the protagonist of the new announcement of Coca-Cola
GAYLES.TV.- La Super Bowl is the most watched television event of the year, it is estimated that only United States manages to add an audience of more than 100 million viewers. For that reason the ads that are issued during the break are the most expensive in the world and this edition has cost 5 millions of dollars for each 30 seconds. Coca-Cola has launched a message in favor of diversity and inclusion with its new spot «The Wonder of Us«.
So he has told Brynn Bardacke, the brand's Vice President of Content and Creative Excellence in North America: «It's a strategic decision for Coca-Cola. The Super Bowl It has a huge audience that is also diverse. We want to celebrate that diversity and get to impact each one of the spectators«. Wieden + Kennedy Portland has been the creative agency responsible for this spot of 60 seconds that was issued during the fourth time of the game between New England Patriots and Philadelphia Eagles.
«The Wonder of Us»Shows a soft drink adapted to each type of person. An idea of diversity in tune with the new image of the packaging that the company has launched in 2018. In this way Coca-Cola Take advantage of your ads to send messages of social inclusion, in this case of diversity.

«There is a Coca-Cola for him and for her. We are different and there is a Coca-Cola for each one of us«. With these words begins the commercial that tries to touch the chord of the viewer. There is no coincidence and each shot is designed to accommodate minorities. People of different races, religions or sexual orientation come out. The representation LGTB + we find it in a person of non-binary gender that appears with a necklace that has the colors of the rainbow and in a lesbian couple who are in a car while the voice-over speaks of love. Undoubtedly, the brand has wanted to position itself deliberately and this is a great step to open the way in the business diversity and to make the collective visible.

Chris, the "macho femme" of French pop
Christine and the Queens releases a second album after the success of her debut with "Chaleur Humaine"
GAYLES.TV.- If there is an overwhelming personality in international pop, it is that of Chris, artistic name with which the new pop muse publishes her second album, thus renouncing the reputation obtained as "Christine and the Queens" with his first job.
After that name shines, that does not hide, Héloïse Litissier, someone who goes beyond the richness, elegance and sophistication of songs that shake the foundations of pop due to their undoubted quality and the unusual nature of their proposal. And it is that, transcending the musical facet that has raised it from the category of new promise to a world revelation of sophisticated electropop, is the personal positioning of this singer and producer who dedicates her second installment to pansexual desire. Chris has consistently refused to be defined, corseted, labeled male or female, and claimed to be "Macho woman". Heir to equal parts of the aesthetic ambiguity of David Bowie or Madonna, has created as themselves, a character that expresses and channels their concerns: the "Phallic woman", who refuses to give up any gender nuance and who permeates his songs with an acid and provocative message.
Because, for those who discover it today, Chris is inscribed in a feeling, in a drive of omnideseo that transcends bisexuality to love us, to incite us from a claimed pansexuality. Chris works like a Trojan horse enveloping himself with the sybaritism of his elegant electrofunk, letters that are like punching the basses of a society that he questions as phallocentric. And if it's about being a woman, that she commands, that she's powerful and that on issues like "Fuck", go down to the sand of a message that borders on porn, but that never falls into obscurity.
Look for it, listen to it, it's very, very recommendable.

The Spanish Stonewall
Unfortunately, this place suffered one of the biggest attacks on sexual freedom in our country. During the night of June 24, 1971 there was a large police raid and more than 300 people were arrested. The authority decreed the closure of 23 premises night and the imposition of fines on their owners of up to twenty thousand pesetas for alleged attacks against public morality. So it is considered the Stonewall Spanish.

New rainbow fish discovered in the Maldives
After almost 30 years with an identity “false”, they discover a new rainbow fish in the Maldives
Off the coast of the Maldives They have discovered a new species of rainbow fish that they have baptized with the scientific name Cirrhilabrus finifenmaa. Marine biologist Ahmed Najeeb is the first Maldivian researcher to discover and name a new species. The specimen is fairy fish with rose veil, which gets its name in the local language Dhivehi. Finifenmaa means "pink” and is a tribute to the pink national flower of the islands, as well as the color of the fish. They found this species at a depth of 40 to 70 meters below the surface of the Indian Ocean.
"Species found in the Maldives have always been described by foreign scientists without much input from local scientists."He expressed ahmed najeeb, biologist at the Maldives Marine Research Institute, who was the author of the name of the fish. “This time it's different and being a part of something for the first time has been really exciting, especially getting the opportunity to work alongside the best ichthyologists on such an elegant and beautiful species.".
failed identity
The fish has a history of failed identity as it was first found in the 1990s, but at the time, researchers thought it was an adult belonging to Cirrhilabrus rubrisquamis, the red velvet fairy fish.
But the new fish, with the colors of the rainbow, was discovered after researchers re-examined the Cirrhilabrus rubrisquamis, and they found two different species. The differences between the two species are subtle, such as the height of the spines and the number of scales on different parts of the body, but DNA analysis confirmed that these two species are genetically distinct.
They found that the females Cirrhilabrus finifenmaa, which are mainly red, pink, and blue, were much like Cirrhilabrus rubrisquamis. However, adult males are not, as they have a unique color pattern that includes bright magenta, pastel orange, orange-pink, and deep purplish-red. Furthermore, the study revealed that Cirrhilabrus finifenmaa has a much smaller geographic range than Cirrhilabrus rubrisquamis, which means that conservation efforts must be increased to protect the species.
two different species
«What we used to think was a widespread fish species are actually two different species; each with a potentially much smaller population"said the lead author of the study, Yi Kai Tea, from the University of Sydney.
In addition, he added that «this shows why the description of new species and taxonomy in general is important for the conservation and management of biodiversity«.
However, the researchers suspect that the population of Cirrhilabrus finifenmaa of Maldives may be in danger of declining. Local fishermen have long sought the Cirrhilabrus rubrisquamis to sell them into the global aquarium trade, which brings in about $330 million each year, according to the United Nations Environment Program. Because the two species of wrasse look so much alike, Cirrhilabrus finifenmaa can also be affected by such activities.
ALEC, lesbians, professionals and entrepreneurs
ALEC has been presented in Barcelona, the first Association of Lesbian Entrepreneurs of Catalonia
GAYLES.TV.- There are many professional, commercial and associative initiatives that occur in the LGTBI environment, but few of a specifically lesbian nature. There is a contingent of professional lesbian women from different fields who work in isolation but as of today already have a tool capable of coordinating them.
ALEC It was born as an instrument of competitiveness based on cooperation between enterprising lesbian women and aims to be a space for personal and professional growth through the organization of workshops, training and exchange.

The second way are the Lesbian Networking, meetings between professional lesbians in a playful and relaxed environment that enables participants to present their business projects, thereby facilitating contact, expansion and exchange. The first of them was held last 28 day in the framework of the presentation of ALEC. And finally, it would be the scope of ALEC Club Services, which would work as a work contact where you can find professionals from any branch, from the design of web pages to psychological care and where, of course, you can also offer your product or professional project.
On the ALEC website, it is also planned to find activities related to the Leisure and Culture, from adventure sports, tournaments of different sports disciplines, dance classes or even Les friendly weekend spas!
ALEC is born from the hand of a group of lesbian women living in Catalonia but it is open to professionals from the rest of Spain and of course of any other nationality. "The more women we form the network, the greater our strength and our empowerment."
The initial ALEC team consists of Maria Giralt (Gayles.tv, Bollo and Butter), Chus González (DJ Lady Chus,Nenis Lesbian Party), Celina Koekenbier (Magles Magazine, MagLes Match APP), Ana Satchi (InOut Radio,Visible Festival) and Paula Alcaide (Psychologist,Gaviotas Group).

The Parliament declares Catalonia a "zone of freedom" for LGTBIQ + people
Most groups blame extreme right speeches for the increase in aggressions against the group
El Parlament has declared Catalonia «freedom zone" for the people LGTBIQ +. The approved resolution denounces all forms of violence or discrimination based on sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression. The text also condemns crimes LGTBI-phobic and reiterates the responsibility of all administrations in protecting the rights of the group. The proposal has been approved with the support of all groups except Vox, who voted against.
The resolution adheres to the one approved in March European Parliament, which establishes the European Union as "freedom zone« for the people of the group. The approval of the text was a response to the declaration of more than 100 city councils and regions of Poland as "LGTBIQ + free zone«.

They hold the extreme right responsible for homophobic crimes
The murder of the young gay man Samuel Luis en A Coruña has flown over the debate in the Parlament. Most parties have considered that the discourse of the extreme right and its presence in the institutions are one of the causes of the increase in attacks on the group.
Monica Lora (Vox) has accused certain groups of condemning only the attacks with which they can obtain political profit, such as that of Samuel, and has praised policies promoted by countries such as Hungary about the family and the collective LTGBIQ versus those driven by Spain like 'trans law'. Has warned: "Be very careful. We will act from our group legally against those who resort to insults and slander for linking our political training with some type of crime«.
Russia against FIFA'17 for gay
The Russian authorities are facing the makers of the FIFA video game for their support of the LGTBI collective
GAYLES.TV.- Yes, the first blunder of the Russians in LGTBI issues just beginning the year has been to ask for the ban of FIFA'17 as "too gay". That has been the request made by politicians from both left and conservatives who, at least, demand that it be cataloged for over 18 years.
And what has pissed so much the communist deputies of the innocent video game of soccer and with EA Sports, its manufacturers? Well, what these brainy gentlemen cannot digest is that the company participated in the campaign Rainbow Laces (Rainbow Laces) launched by the British collective Stonewall to combat homophobia and transphobia in the beautiful game. Many were the sports clubs that joined the initiative and also some companies such as EA Sports that decided to add free multi-color uniforms to FIFA'17 that users could use in Ultimate Team mode until November 24. Come on, a simple thing but one that is effective when reaching the thousands of FIFA players.
Well, this minutia seems an aberration to the Russians who believe that violates the law passed in the 2013 by the Parliament of the Russian Federation that prohibits the dissemination of LGTBI propaganda. In short, the usual, that there is serious danger of perversion of children who dress their game equipment with a colorful shirt. The monda let's go.
According to statements by the representative of the Russian Communist Party Valery Rashkin to the Russian newspaper Izvestia: “After the investigation the authorities should require EA SPORTS to modify the game code or at least adapt the age rating for the game. If they refuse, we will have to think about restrictive measures »
You can already imagine that in Russia they are not the Wise Men either Santa Claus who bring gifts to the children for Christmas. Does it Ded Moroz, who is often accompanied by his granddaughter Snegurochka. They are winter spirits whose body is made up of snow and who, interestingly, also distribute their gifts on January 6. Well, we only hope that Ded and his granddaughter did not think of handing out a lot of FIFA'17 this year because it's going to get us stuck with the one that is falling in Russia and next year the creatures will run out of toys. If that…
