While homosexuality was decriminalized, in Fiji, Uganda, it is happening the opposite: as it has presented a bill that would criminalize with the death penalty for being homosexuals. If you know of a homosexual act and not reported in the next 24 hours, people with knowledge of the event will be jailed for up to three years. It also involves up to seven years imprisonment for those defending the rights of gays and transsexuals. This is clearly a law that goes against all human rights, citizenship and even common sense.

According to the pathologizing of transgender identity, France becomes the first country that takes the identity out of their psychological textbooks, although medical effect transsexuals are still within the health service. This will be done by sorting the transsexual as a condition of long duration (ALD) "unlisted" or "orphan disease," said Joel Bedos, initiator of this proposal.

On Sunday 21 March at 3am Katerin Barrios disappeared in Guatemala in a blue jeep convertible car with a stranger and since then his whereabouts are not known. She is one more of the victims of transphobia and the prevailing chauvinim.

Christmas in Lima brought anguished and desperate calls realizing violence. On the eve of Christmas, citizens transvestites in downtown Lima, were targeted by the intervention of Serenazgo, with a contingent of 40 guards of that tem, mobilized in a municipal truck XY4333 plate, trucks, motorcycles, bicycles, aided by dogs, covering their faces with ski masks and wearing gloved hands. Transvestites were deployed in the area in shock action. They were hunted because they were sex workers and lived in the area.

The girls who were captured were taken to the police station in the sector, after having them in the car under constant abuse, they abandoned Stefani, Fernanda, Michelle, Erika, Leti, Katyusha, April, Estrella, Nicole in places far from the downtown Lima, near Ventanilla. Others were led to the police station in Alfonso Ugarte, where Seshena fainted, as a result of the brutal treatment. When she was locked in the truck, instead of worrying the guards laughed and continued taunting.

This is the other side of Christmas, whose central message is valid for Christians and nonbelievers, which lies in the love, friendship, humanity; but here is also the question that I can and must do : how can i help to eradicate the exclusions that denies the dignity and to have a bettter human condition.
