Mexico.- Paulina, a transgender girl reported that a gym located in Mexico City (CDMX) did not let her wear the women’s dress. This has happened on different occasions and yet it was detailed that even the gym staff has proposed different alternatives to keep their customers satisfied.
As we said, Paulina is a transgender woman who has had to get into the men’s dressing room to bathe and change after her exercise routines are over. Even in an interview for Animal Político he has pointed out that he has had to endure insults, looks and comments against him.

It is that they have helped her to ask the gym staff to have access to the women’s dressing room, however the answer has been no. In order to make Paulina more comfortable, she was proposed to use the space for disabled people. This last action far from helping the trans girl caused her to be upset as she claimed to be transgender is no disability. So now he’s asking that gym, and all his chain to let him use the women’s locker room any day of the week at any time. A letter he addressed to the gym and disseminated on Facebook reads as he demands to assert his rights.” As a woman I have the right to have my identity respected by any company governed by the federal laws of our country, including the Federal Civil Code and Mexico City, as well as the 1st Constitutional Article on Human Rights , specifically in the section of the grounds that prevent them from being subjected to gender discrimination”.
