ARRUBIA, Eduardo J. Equal or different?: LGBTI rights under discussion. Rev. Fac. Der. [online]. 2016, n.41, pp.15-34. ISSN 0797-8316.  https://doi.org/10.22187/rfd201622.

Feminism has emerged in a context of struggle for equality.  As formal rights gained ground, material inequalities resulting from ineffective legal rules became evident. These issues are the starting point for the discussion on equality and differences in the field of LGBTI human rights theory. Accordingly, this essay explores the new legal rights gained by the LGBTI community in the Argentine Republic, along with material tensions arising from social reality. Such reality is addressed by relevant literature as well as by the analysis of interviews conducted in the city of Azul, Province of Buenos Aires. The core idea of this essay focuses on the search for a theory connecting both equality and difference when it comes to sexual minorities.

Palabras clave : human rights; discrimination; sexuality; LGBTI; feminism.
