At 3:30 p.m. on Sunday, a young woman tried to enter a supermarket in the Santiago Centro district. It was a weekend with (COVID) restrictions, but she and her partner went with all their papers in order. However, “the guard started looking at me strangely. He asked me for my license and when he looked at it he told me that I could not enter the premises ”, she said.
The guard, in addition to preventing her entry, treated her at all times as a “gentleman” because she was dressed in “masculine” clothes, although on multiple occasions she pointed out that she was a woman. In addition to this, a client verbally assaulted her for the same reason, saying that “if I was a woman I had to dress as a woman.” None of the guards or people present defended her.
In front of the entire supermarket and while the couple asked the customer not to get involved, he said: “Do you think that just because you are a woman I can’t hit you?”

A las 15:30 horas del día domingo, una joven intentó ingresar a un supermercado en la comuna de Santiago Centro. Era fin de semana con restricciones sanitarias, pero ella y su pareja, iban con todos sus papeles en regla. Sin embargo, “el guardia me empezó a mirar extraño. Me pidió mi carnet y al mirarlo me dijo que no podía ingresar al local”, dijo.
El guardia, además de impedir su ingreso, la trató en todo momento de “caballero” por estar vestida con ropas “masculinas”, aunque en múltiples ocasiones se le señaló que era mujer. Sumado a esto, un cliente la agredió verbalmente por el mismo motivo, diciendo que “si yo era mujer me tenía que vestir de mujer”. Ninguno de los guardias o personas presentes la defendió.
En frente de todo el supermercado y mientras la pareja le pedía al cliente que no se involucrara, este le dijo: “¿Crees que porque eres mujer no te puedo pegar?’”, recordó la afectada.
