| Description | In Quintana Roo, there are no laws restricting the discussion or promotion of LGBTQ+ topics on the state level since the removal of homosexuality from Mexico's federal "corruption of minors" law. There were no state laws that considered homosexuality a "corruption of minors" in Quintana Roo. However, some municipalities have limited LGBTIQ+ public expression. For example, Cozumel had provisions in its good behaviour and policing code that explicitly prohibit “men dressing in women’s clothing” until a reform in 2010. |
