ルチャリブレ
Many gay wrestlers show in their performances that they may identify as a female, but can be just as strong as a male, and can deliver a great performance just like any other male wrestler. "Lucha libre" is a performance that is open to multiple readings on axis of representation by two men. Many "lucha libre" matches cannot be described as a struggle between two men, because not all wrestlers are male, and not all male wrestlers are unambiguously men. A "lucha libre" match between two men represents a rudo and a técnico (evil and good), in which most "exóticos" end up being rudos. This does not apply to all "exóticos", but the audience usually responds to them being a rudo.
