Camilo responds to those who spoke about the gender of his daughter Indigo… For weeks, one of the calmest couples and far from gossip in the world of entertainment, have been involved in them.
They began with the rumors of crisis, separation and even divorce between the singer and Evaluna Montaner, which they silenced with the news that on their anniversary they will renew their wedding vows, the one that took place in the middle of the beginning of the pandemic and in secret.
But the bet, of what should not happen, was redoubled, when it was the turn of the little Indigo, whom they have been questioning, since the parents decided to give her that name even without knowing if it would be a boy or a girl, something that they discovered the day he was born, since not only did he not want to know, but they decided never to have an ultrasound.
On Telemundo’s ‘Al Rojo Vivo’ show, they confirmed that Camil and Evaluna had decided to give her a generic name, because they wanted their daughter to be non-binary, that is, when she turned 18 she would decide what her gender is.
This aroused all kinds of controversy, questioning and a lot of attacks on the little girl who is not even a year old. For this reason, this Saturday, Camilo decided to break the silence and, as he himself says, although it is not his custom, to clarify the misunderstanding and that his daughter is clearly a girl, female with a generic name.
“Several days ago we have been receiving a mouthful of questions and intensity from the media and especially from gossip programs about an alleged news claiming that we had decided that our daughter would be recognized as non-binary.
We deeply respect the people who make this decision, but it is not our case. They took out of context some videos of interviews where we referred to Indigo in a neutral way because until the day he was born we never knew his sex because we never did ultrasounds, “the singer began by clarifying in the Instastory of his Instagram account.
And he continued giving more details, expanding and ending with a reflection for all humanity:
“We thought not to pronounce ourselves on the matter, and to let it pass, as we have done the 50 times that they have said that our marriage is in crisis, that we are going to get divorced, etc, etc…
But we found the amount of hate and judgmental messages we received disturbing. And we began to think about how, for example, people in the LGBTQ+ community might feel in the face of a world that points at them, judging them, with fingers pointing and condemning. Imagine how intense and complex it can be for a person going through such a recognition process, and finding themselves with a society full of stones in hand, waiting for the first signal to throw them.
We believe and strive to create a world and a future where we invent more ways to love each other, recognize each other, respect each other and embrace each other with our differences. We send you a hug, a hug from the soul and from the center of our family nucleus. Camilo, Evaluna and Indigo “, she ends.
What is gender non-binary?
The non-binary gender, also called gender of non-binarity or gender of non-binarity, in the framework of gender studies, is the denomination that is applied to people who assume a gender identity that is outside the gender binary, since their self-designated identity is not perceived as fully masculine or feminine. Gender non-binary people may identify with a non-binary third gender (gender non-binary); with two (bigender), three (trigender) or more genders (pangender) simultaneously; have a fluid gender that transitions between two or more genders perpetually or sporadically, or be agender if they do not identify with any gender in whole or in part, Wikipedia explains, in a compilation of scientific studies.
