Los Cometravucos

La calle te hace y te deshace, te lima, te castiga y te regala pocas caricias y demasiados golpes. Moretones gigantes que nunca cicatrizan, moretones de alma que en general se tornan incurables, dolores inolvidables y alguna que otra alegría que te hace sonreír y respirar un cambio de aire.

A while back, courts ruled in favor of a transwoman because she was fired when she proceeded to transition in her, then, workplace.
