However, it’s a big and diverse city, and what is fine in one neighborhood may not be considered acceptable in another. are, if not gay-friendly, then at least gay-tolerant.

Queer people here enjoy a whole host of important rights: same-sex marriage is legal in D.F., same-sex couples can jointly adopt children, trans* people can change their gender on legal documents. It’s large and cosmopolitan, which tends to ensure that people will be open-minded. Mexico City is, in many ways, the gay capital of Mexico (the other competitor for this title is Guadalajara, but I’ve never been there, so I can’t say).
