The Ley de Identidad de Genero (Gender Identity Law) was also passed in 2012, which is a big step forward in granting transgender rights.
Just 3 years ago, Argentina became the first country in Latin America to legalize same-sex marriage. On this front, we really have something to celebrate about. This annual event, Marcha del Orgullo, will take place this Saturday November 9 at Plaza de Mayo. It is an occasion not only for the LGBT community but for everyone who embraces diversity and equality in civil rights no matter your sexual orientation.
Every year in the beginning of November, Buenos Aires brings you our LGBT Pride Parade.
