| Description | In the state of México, there are no laws restricting the discussion or promotion of LGBTQ+ topics on the state level since the removal of homosexuality as a "corrupt habit" in its law against corruption of minors in 2000. However, several municipalities still use sanctions against “morality and good customs” to persecute LGBTIQ+ identity in practice. |
