Guatemala LGBT Safety
[/et_pb_text][et_pb_text admin_label=”LGBT Safety in ” _builder_version=”3.21.1″]
Guatemala has no actual laws to protect LGBT against discrimination and harassment.
Discrimination based on gender identity and sexual orientation is common in health care, employment, education, and housing.
Some establishments use their right to deny LGBT access to their premises. We never witnessed anything like this happen, but in rural areas, you might run into problems.
Hate crimes, harassment, and even targeted killings still happen frequently in Guatemala. These crimes are usually directed to locals rather than tourists.
But keep in mind that these things happen and that people can target you for being gay. Society has a negative attitude towards LGBT.
Be careful with public display of affection and keep a low profile.
Most tourist towns and areas that are frequently visited by tourists have a more relaxed attitude towards LGBT and you are likely to be safe. A lot of effort has been made to change laws and protect LGBT against discrimination.
As for 2017, none of these laws have made it through.

That’s the question!
We do things our way and everyone is allowed to do things their way, obviously!
For us, we like to keep a low profile when we travel. With this in mind, we also keep PDA, hugs, and kisses for our private quarters. This clearly depends on the country and the region we’re in. So this doesn’t count for the entire world. But it does count for most of Guatemala!
This has never stopped us from traveling and we explored some amazing places in Guatemala as a lesbian couple. As you might know, one of us does clearly NOT PASS as straight! And we didn’t encounter any trouble while staying low profile.
When staying in a hostel that is run by foreigners, you’re usually very ok and there’s no need for a low profile. Nevertheless, we have been surprised by the open mind of locals in rural areas as well.
Check out some of the amazing destinations we visited as a lesbian couple in Guatemala. An don’t forget to read our epic itinerary and our backpacking guide for Guatemala too!
