Lesbiradas is a public lesbian rights organization in Guatemala. Lesbiradas works towards gaining human rights for lesbians, bisexual women and transgender people. It is run out of Guatemala City and currently has five central organizers. Claudia Acevedo is the co-founder and spokeswoman of Lesbiradas. Lesbiradas is a play on the Spanish words for 'liberated lesbians' -''lesbianas liberadas''. The organization was originally called Lesberadads, but was changed to Lesbiradas at the request of bisexual women. ==Direct Action== Lesbiradas works for government reform addressing violence and discrimination against lesbians, femicide, rape, torture and mutilation of women in Guatemala, and violence against women. The organisation also attempts to educate the public toward the recognition and acceptance of non-heterosexualities, which is difficult in a country that doesn't discuss sexuality. Lesbiradas also creates support groups and dialog between lesbians, bisexual women and transgender people, for support, referrals and community-building. Many of those served have been rejected or abused by their families due to their gender, sexual orientation and gender identity. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Lesbiradas」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
