In 2014, GLAAD stated that "through her advocacy and proud visibility, [she] has contributed immensely to advancing the equality movement around the world and particularly in Argentina."[1] She became the first transgender person in Argentina to get her name and the gender on her government-issued ID legally changed without pathologizing her gender identity,[1][2] two years before the national Gender Identity Law was established.[3]
In 2021, Flor de la V announced that she identified as a travesti, writing: "I discovered a more correct way to get in touch with how I feel: neither woman, nor heterosexual, nor homosexual, nor bisexual. I am a dissident of the gender system, my political construction in this society is that of a pure-bred travesti. That what I am and what I want and choose to be."[4]
