Challenges to the HIV Care Continuum During the Covid-19 Pandemic in Mexico: A Mixed Methods Study
Interseccionalidad y condicionantes sociales de la salud: Una aproximación teórico-metodológica sobre el efecto del estigma en la vida de mujeres con VIH/sida en Chiapas
Este artículo presenta un ejercicio acerca de la potencia heurística de la teoría feminista de la interseccionalidad para enriquecer la aproximación de condicionantes sociales en salud (css), en las posibilidades de acceso de un conjunto de mujeres con vih/sida a la atención especializada en el estado de Chiapas. Se realizó una encuesta con una muestra representativa de mujeres cisgénero en tratamiento antirretroviral, provenientes de localidades…
Limits, excesses and pleasures: Practices and discourses of sex work in a Mexican rural community
In Tomatlán, a small city on the Mexican Pacific Coast there is a tolerance zone in which a group of sex workers, separated from the rest of the city by a garbage dump, offer their services to local men. The women present themselves materially and symbolically as agents of regulation with respect to male sexuality, itself constructed as overwhelming and insatiable, which, were it not for services provided by the sex workers, would threaten the fa…
Gobernanza neoliberal en la epidemia del VIH/Sida en mujeres en México: Los efectos del paradigma de la vulnerabilidad
En México, la respuesta a la epidemia del VIH en mujeres está sostenida por el paradigma de la vulnerabilidad que domina la gobernanza neoliberal, de modo que una organización gubernamental del sufrimiento distribuye recursos entre “poblaciones clave”. En el presente artículo se discute la manera en que esta estrategia, orientada por la regulación moral de la sexualidad, funciona simultáneamente como razón de ser y camisa de fuerza de las organiz…
Límites, excedentes y placeres: Prácticas y discursos en torno al trabajo sexual en una zona rural de México
En una pequena ciudad de la costa mexicana del Pacífico se encuentra una zona de tolerancia donde un grupo de trabajadoras sexuales, separadas del resto de la ciudad por contenedores de basura, ofrece sus servicios a los hombres de la localidad. Las mujeres se presentan, material y simbólicamente, como agentes regulatorias de una sexualidad masculina que se construye desbordante e insaciable y que, de no ser por ellas, amenazaría el orden social …
Body and embodiment in the experience of abortion for Mexican women: The sexual body, the fertile body, and the body of abortion
In April 2007, Mexico City's Legislative Assembly passed a law that decriminalized abortion up to 12 weeks of pregnancy, and established that the Ministry of Health was to provide the service. This has allowed Mexican women to seek a legal termination of pregnancy (LTP) without any legal procedure at all, therefore setting different coordinates for the experience. This article explores the above issues through the qualitative analysis of 24 inter…
Women's interpretations of the right to legal abortion in Mexico City: Citizenship, Experience and Clientelism
In April 2007, after a period of intense social debate, the Mexico City Legal Assembly legalized abortion during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy, which was an unprecedented development in women's rights in Mexico. Within the context of a proliferation of public discourses about women's citizenship rights changes in women's social status in Mexico, this article explores the extent to which the newly legalized character of abortion is interpreted b…
Sexualité et autonomie des femmes au Mexique: L'État laïque en question
Au Mexique, l’intrication entre politique, religion et égalité de genre est plus forte que jamais. En témoignent la prise en charge de la pilule du lendemain par les services fédéraux de Santé publique en 2004 et la dépénalisation de l’avortement à Mexico en 2008, auxquelles a répondu une campagne massive pour recriminaliser l’avortement. Cet article examine les pratiques et les discours de divers acteurs, dont trois éléments se dégagent : l’auto…

Passionate uprisings: Iran's sexual revolution
Subject, sexuality and biopower: Legal defence of soldiers living with HIV and sexual rights in Mexico
The appeals that 11 service men filed against the Mexican Army in 2007 for unfair dismissal, on the grounds that they were living with HIV, opened an unprecedented chapter in the relationship between sexuality and the judicial system in Mexico, and in the links between biopower and the processes of democratisation and citizenship in the country. In this article, we analyse this process by looking at claimants' discourses as well as those of the S…
Politics, Religion and Gender Equality in Contemporary Mexico: Women's sexuality and reproductive rights in a contested secular state
This article explores the complexities of the interaction between politics, religion and gender equality in contemporary Mexico, by analysing recent developments in public debate, legal changes and implementation of government policies in two areas: 1) the inclusion of emergency contraception in public health services in 2004; and 2) the decriminalisation of abortion in Mexico City in 2008, which was followed by a massive campaign to re-criminali…

‘I Had a Guilty Conscience Because I Wasn't Going to Marry Her’: Ethical Dilemmas for Mexican Men in their Sexual Relationships with Women
In Mexico's predominantly Catholic culture, the enjoyment of sexual rights faces many challenges, both at the political and the personal level. Although often connected, the meanings of sexuality and reproduction are fundamentally different and so, correspondingly, are possibilities for the exercise of reproductive rights versus sexual rights. Such views are ‘gendered’ by the idea that women's desire and sexual activity should be controlled and m…
Subjective processes of sexuality and citizenship in Mexico: Gender and the authorization of desire
Dialogue and the negotiation of meaning: Constructions of virginity in Mexico
This paper describes research into the meanings of virginity and sexual initiation in three contrasting areas in Mexico. Starting from an approach that considers sexuality as a 'historical invention', the paper begins by describing personal and theoretical context within which the study was designed and conducted. Data was collected by means of group and in-depth individual interviews. The material collected was analysed in three principal ways-i…
