This is often times confused with being transgender, or gay but the locals are quick to establish that this is not the case. Muxe is a specific identity that is common to the Zapoteca indigenous people of the Oaxaca region. It’s a cultural issue and they insist there’s no equivalent to it in other cultures.
Their stories are different. Some recall specifically choosing to dress up like a woman, while others say they were rejected by little boys and just assumed they then needed to behave as girls. Muxes are sometimes scorned by society and by their own families and often they are victims of cruel abuse. However they all agree that this is a condition they were born with and they accept it humbly and gratefully.
In some families, mothers actually want one of their sons to be Muxe because they only have boys and need a helping hand around the house. Also, the fact that Muxes don’t marry means mothers won’t have to worry about loneliness in old age. So they are on the look out for a son who might exhibit slight feminine tendencies and they make sure to encourage him to explore those tendencies.
To some families it’s actually a blessing or a sign of good luck to have a Muxe, however life is not always easy for these men once they step outside of the region.

Many Muxes have to inject hormones in order to keep from growing a beard or from getting a deep voice. This is sometimes expensive and some resort to prostitution to be able to pay for the treatments. Others forego the hormones, though, and simply decide to live like men who prefer to have sex with other men.
Some people believe that the strict matriarchal society is what pushes so many boys to become Muxes, but some locals disagree. Although the role of women is extremely important to their culture, they insist that Muxes are born, not made.
Muxe means different things to different people. To some it’s freedom and lightness. Watch this interesting film now.
