Despite the fact that in most of the planet June is considered the month of gay pride and LGBTIQ+, in other countries it is different. In Uruguay, the march for diversity is in September and in Colombia , the march will also be on July 2 and 9 (I march trans).

Currently, Mexico, Colombia, Argentina, Brazil, Uruguay, Ecuador, Costa Rica, Chile and Cuba are the Latin American countries that allow marriage between same-sex couples.
