We also talk about television and trans people, and about the columns written for "Presentes" by trans activist Quimey Ramos and Gabriela Mansilla from Niñeces Libres (Free Children).
This morning in the city of La Plata, Hermann Müller (a 30-year-old actor) was attacked for being gay. “He’s a faggot, let’s kill him!” two men told him before attacking him.
