Protest in Mexico against gender ideology
Mexico City – Thousands of people demonstrated in front of Congress to demand that parliamentarians ensure that laws truly defend Mexican children against gender ideology and ban chemical and surgical sex reassignment treatments on minors.A week ago, LGBT and transgender organizations attacked Congress in Mexico City for tabling a bill to ban these sex reassignment practices against minors. This time, it was the defenders of the Family and children who demonstrated, and in large numbers.
The march, held in Mexico City, was called by the platforms of the Citizens' Initiative and the National Front for the Family (FNF).
According to a statement, Rosa Mary Morales, spokesperson for the FNF, denounced at the big demonstration how the LGBT lobby seeks to "impose its ideas and sow fear among legislators, the people and even the media".
Rosa Mary Morales said family advocacy platforms "oppose harming children with growth blockers, cross-hormones and amputations of healthy limbs that cause irreversible harm to children."
Participants in the march expressed their support for legislative initiatives such as those presented by Deputy América Rangel, before the Congress of Mexico City, and Mónica Rodríguez Della Vecchia, before the Congress of the State of Puebla. Both bills aim to ban and penalize hormonal and surgical sex reassignment treatments for children.
In addition, they encouraged Federal Deputy María Teresa Castell to present a similar initiative at the national level.
During the march, they also demanded that the right of parents to choose their children's education be respected. On the other hand, it was called for women to be valued and respected, alluding to certain uses of terms that seek to erase the distinction between men and women.
Family advocates also opposed the reform package on "substantive equality" and "gender equity" that the EU Congress has held among its outstanding issues in recent years, and which includes constitutional changes that would open the doors to abortion and gender ideology.
At the demonstration, former senator Lisbeth Hernández demanded that Mexican legislators "respect and observe international treaties and not amend our Constitution, always legislate from a family perspective, respect and promote
the family composed of one man and one woman."
"And, above all, given the high rates of violence that our country is going through, that the right to life be recognized and promoted, as well as the emotional stability of our children," she asked.
