在过去的二十年里，阿根廷的女同性恋、男同性恋、双性恋和变性者+老年人在社会政策和法律以及媒体和公众舆论方面经历了相当大的转变。本文旨在分析的接受和表达的身份（“出柜”）在女同性恋和男同性恋老年人的政治和法律的变化，发生在阿根廷的基础上，也在他们与他人的关系。焦点小组进行了10个老年同性恋和10个老年女同性恋。调查结果表明，社会文化变化被视为积极的，尽管人们对这些变化的深度和真实性表示怀疑。同性婚姻和性别认同法被认为是一个更加宽容和多样化的时代的象征，在这个时代，他们行使了作为公民的权利。
In the last two decades, lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender + elderly people in Argentina have experienced considerable transformations with respect to social policies and laws as well as in the media and public opinion. This article aims to analyze the levels of acceptance and expression of identity ("coming out") in lesbian and gay seniors based on the political and legal changes that have occurred in Argentina but also in their relationship with others. Focus groups were conducted with 10 older gay and 10 older lesbians. The results indicate that sociocultural changes are seen as something positive although doubts arise about the in-depth and authenticity of the changes. The same-sex marriage and gender identity laws are considered as a symbol of an era of greater tolerance and diversity in which they have achieved the exercise of their rights as citizens.
