Today is good, I have enough
activities with the theme of activism
but today I have come more in
representation of a population neither
population
my name is a sources I am graduated from
sociology and politics as they said good
as I told you I’m music I play the
guitar the bass the option I like the
art performance I do some done
some art presentations
performance I like to be immersed in the
art seems to me quite important
I am an urban cyclist I believe in him in the use
of the public space especially by
women than those people who
we have occupied the public space of this
way we know that it is always has more
work and it is more difficult for
women because of many things that
somehow I’m going to talk about that and
graduated from sociology sociologist
activist is part of many
collective I also like many
issues like sex work
I’m more careful about these issues and
she is mainly a transgender woman
a lesbian transgender woman and that’s what
I say this way because of the
damages that we have as a society and
the invisibility that I have as
population and that’s how he did what won me
first you will have to say ‘well me from
my six years old I had to deal with the
negative breast to the really not
feel identified as a boy be
despite having a body x full e
but I would like blaming Mom I
I grew up in a society that represented
through the media
massive to trans people like
sex workers and the only notes
that they were ending was to cover their
early and violent deaths
I wonder who wants to be part of
a population so I did not want to do
a sex worker and the very little
information that existed in between
it really made everything difficult and I did it
all very useful
there comes a second moment in which I
I start investigating the subject and I find out
of many other data that I want
put some shine today 80%
Trans women like me have
a life expectancy of 38 years in
Latin America
I am 26 years old according to this statistic
I have twelve years left
life because of violence and lack
of opportunities the lack of protection
that we live as a population
Latin America is the place where more
murders of trans women happens in
ecuador the number 10 of 24 the 70 by
percent of trans women are doing
sex work against their will by the
lack of job opportunities
all this makes the young population the
The young trans population is the largest
the suicide rates is a figure
really alarming
to me personally many times I have been
prey of legal uncertainty banks
just for questioning my identity or I’ve
I had to make my information public
private only to not fall into
distrust online and entities
public
many times it has been pointed out why a
identity system a cedula that makes
public information that is private
all this without leaving aside what
we live as women who is also a
very strong reality and is that if we live
in a society that unfortunately
provide better opportunities
privilege and a public space
pure for men than for women
we live in a country that pitifully
we have a wage gap it
locate women below men
in the 21st century where is is of every 10
women have suffered sexual violence and
yes many people asked me but why
what do you want to be a woman in society
yes but I did not do that I chose anything
of this that the only thing that the son is
stand up well from here to the front of
you and be visible
because it seems important to me
young people that like I did in their
today they grow thinking that it is a
punishment be different
the truth is that for everything there is
prejudices not in this society even
to make a trans person
after years of battling with mom with
an educational system that of some
way I denied my existence or in the
worst case satin satanized my
existence and I achieved or a little
get into those in the field of
sexual diversity can access groups
after friendly groups that you go and without
But I kept finding myself with these
barriers
I expressed that I really did not feel
that I needed an operation with the
famous genital change operation
change of sex
I said really I do not feel that
I need that when I said that a lot
people are scared today said but is that
maybe she does not want to be a complete woman and
I said but there are women –
complete that others exist more women
women than other women less women
and others and it was interesting for me
hit me with this accor with this premise
not because then discover since as
said the company effectively what
staff is political
we exist different bodies and we deserve
equal rights and no trans person
she must be forced to operate her body
only for social acceptance or worse yet
because a law recognizes this person
recognize the rights that have given us
removed the second space that also
it hits me
between these spaces of diversity is
when I declare myself a lesbian and everyone
so scared and even the boy himself
you want it but good if you want to be
woman at least more serious names
was when I was telling a
psychologist and the psychologist was telling me something
that left me tremendously impacts me
I said good but if you want to be a woman
should look to the internet as the
meaning of being a woman would depend on
a man or our taste towards
mens
our ability to be penetrated by
a man was still questioning me
this was not me going to circles gvt is with
this matter
cheers and visibilising is a person
trans transgender proud of my body
proud of me
I do not think I need to put myself
firmly that I am no woman
trapped in the body of man as
colloquially I am a woman and this is
a body and women we know of several
forms and several and in various ways
and not move
I consider myself dissident dissident
sexual
dissent is categorized as the
ra sexuality and championed me this
prefix because I do not think I should
exist parameters to measure our
sexuality our identity does not even
our body
I fight for my right to love me and
how I am and choose about my body
Finally, it also has a label
little more different not him
I am also a feminist and this
unfortunately it is also frowned upon
as the compañera said we live in a
society that is pitifully
used to see men in spaces
of power is used to the
gender violence to inequality of
gender
so much so that to declare feminist
it will always be frowned upon and I used this
theme of feminism today to make a
small maybe a little analysis to
through my life to elucidate a
lots of things that are happening in
the life of trans people and also
in the lives of women what
means being a woman in a country like
Ecuador what it means to be a person
trans in a place like Latin America
I fight for my right to be different
to be different and resist in that
difference
my interest is that more people can
acquire I will reach feminism that
more people more women more people
after diverse people reach the
feminism because more and more
let’s continue advancing to a society that
think of a we are all equal not of
the way men saw it
in the universal declaration of
human rights of men like what
they saw in the constitution or as what
they saw in all these treat those
international treaties that say that
we are all equal
I want all of us to fight for a
we all say we are all the same as they are
all and all
thank you very much
[Applause]
