Abstract

The objective of this article is to reflect on the reality faced by people of diverse sexual diversity and gender identity groups in countries such as Mexico, when they decide to publicly acknowledge their sexuality. Through an approach to the reality experienced by the LGBTIQA collective, we seek to analyze the human rights crisis that exists in Latin American society, finding points of connection between this situation and the theoretical proposal on the lie proposed by Sissela Bok. In conclusion, the importance of recognizing the individuality of each particular situation, which determines the level of risk, and therefore, its possibility of being classified as a crisis, is raised.
