Pope Francis met with transgender man Diego Neria
Lejárraga and his fiancée on Saturday
January 24th at the Vatican. The Pope agreed to meet Diego
after Diego wrote to him telling him about the constant
discrimination he experiences in church since he converted
from a woman to a man. According to Spanish newspaper,
Hoy, Diego, who was labelled 'the devil’s daughter' by a
priest said: “After hearing him on many occasions, I felt that
he would listen to me.”
Despite the meeting, the Vatican has not commented on it or
released photos from the visit.
