I am a 40 year old woman and only now did I experience the height of chauvinism and historical racism in Argentina. As a woman of color, I was subject to discrimination and felt uncomfortable and unwelcome in various public places. The comments and behavior of the people I encountered were demeaning and offensive, and I am deeply disturbed by the prevalence of such attitudes. There is no place for this kind of behavior nowadays and I urge the government to take action to address this issue.
