Spain’s First Openly LGBT Bullfighter Believes More Will Follow, Advocates for Modernization
Mario Alcalde, Spain’s first openly LGBT bullfighter, thinks others will also come out after his revelation of being pansexual.
He practices bullfighting part-time, working full-time at the airport. Mario’s decision to come out was spontaneous and even surprised his family.
He believes bullfighting is an art form but faces criticism for its cruelty. Despite this, Mario wants to create a space for bullfighting supporters in Madrid’s LGBT community.
While some welcome his initiative, others feel it clashes with the area’s progressive vibe. Mario insists bullfighting isn’t declining and defends it passionately, despite criticism.
He sees it as a vital part of Spanish culture, even though it’s controversial.
