22-year-old Victoria Rovira was born as a man, but she didn’t identify with that gender. After many years of struggling and learning how to know herself, she became a “trans” activist.

She was a victim of rape and faces discrimination almost every day: from those who think she is a sex worker to those who have denied her job opportunities just because she is a transgender woman.

But Victoria thinks that people should not be differentiated by “what they have between their legs” and the most important thing is to work for an inclusive society.
