Anastasia Domini and wife Anna are part of an increasing number of Russians from the LGBTQ+ community who have decided to leave their homeland to escape discrimination and settle in Argentina, where same-sex marriage has been legal for more than a decade.
Anastasia Domini, left, and her wife Anna, swing their daughter Una as they walk to a park in Buenos Aires, Argentina, Saturday, April 22, 2023. The same-sex couple are part of an increasing number of Russians from the LGBTQ+ community who left their homeland to escape discrimination and settled in Argentina, where same-sex marriage has been legal for more than a decade.
Over the past decade, living openly as a member of the LGBTQ+ community in Russia has grown increasingly difficult. “The conflict between Russia and Ukraine has accelerated the decision of many people who were already in a vulnerable situation,” said Maribe Sgariglia, who heads the organization’s international relations department.
Two years after marriage equality became law in Argentina in 2010, Congress approved a pioneering Gender Identity Law that codified rights for transgender individuals, including the ability to change names without the need for medical evaluations. Shushpan now shares an apartment in downtown Buenos Aires with Dimitry Yarin, a fellow Russian he met on a dating app.
