On this last point, Barrón López said that it is “a non-genetic transformation, but organic or hormonal”, and that these people “continue to be” of the gender determined by their genes. Regarding sexual orientations, another topic they discussed, she said, “They are very diverse, but I think these are topics that I also don’t have to talk about in biology classes. “

Barrón said he was summoned shortly after by the principal who told him he had received complaints from several relatives. The professor maintained that he was ready to apologize if he had offended someone, but in no way could he deny the scientific evidence. “It’s like I’m being judged for saying the Earth is round,” he said.

“I do not know of what facts I am accused because I did not have a statement of charges, nor access to the complaint, nor do not know who signs it”, he lamented.

Barrón, who has a 25-year career, arrived at the institute in 2020 and says her problems started when she challenged “gender ideology” workshops that she saw as “indoctrination. “and even” corruption of minors “.
