Balanced Video - Visibility in Mexico

Univision's morning variety show Despierta América takes a look at the growing visibility of lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) people in Mexico City, and asks whether being gay is just in vogue. What could have been just another stereotypical report sensationalizing the lives of gay people actually turned out to be a fair and balanced story. Several gay and lesbian Mexican activists explained that queer people have always existed in Mexican culture but have only recently begun to lead more open lives. Their honest answers helped dispel the ignorant notion that being gay is just a momentary trend.
