Transgender woman challenges societal norms by applying to compete in Miss Venezuela pageant

  • Sofia Salomón, an influencer and Instagram model, has applied to participate in this year's Miss Venezuela contest, aiming to be the first transgender woman to compete. She believes her participation could bring visibility and challenge the conservative society's intolerance towards any defiance of heteronormative standards.
  • Venezuela is a deeply divided country, but the annual Miss Venezuela pageant has the ability to unite its population. However, the country's deeply conservative society has little acceptance for the LGBTQ+ community, and LGBTQ+ rights are not a prominent topic of discussion amidst the ongoing crisis and political tensions.
