Will Mexico make history today? Many are sure that it will, that it will be this Sunday, June 2, 2024 when our country finally goes to the polls to elect who would be the first President of the country; However, let us remember that in the contest for the presidency of the country there is also a gentleman.
The polls have launched Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo, candidate of the “Let’s Keep Making History” alliance, made up of Morena, the Labor Party (PT) and the Green Ecologist Party of Mexico (PVEM), in the contention for the Presidency in these Elections in Mexico. ); Xóchitl Gálvez, from the “Force and Heart for Mexico” coalition, made up of the National Action Party (PAN), the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) and the Party of the Democratic Revolution (PRD) for the Presidency of the Republic; and Jorge Álvarez Máynez, from Movimiento Ciudadano (MC).
In the streets throughout the country it is said that Mexico will be led by a woman, but what some are beginning to question is what name her partner would receive in this case. Let us remember that history has marked the wives of the Presidents of Mexico like: “First lady“.
The option of “First Gentleman” comes to the minds of many; However, there is no historical reference that this has happened and generally, in other countries it has been achieved by leaving the gentlemen “behind the scenes.”
In the case of Angela Markel, who was chancellor of Germany for more than a decade, many do not remember the face of her partner, Joachim Sauer, who did not take center stage during the mandate. A similar case is that of Denis, husband of Margaret Thatcher, Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, whom the press described as a “submissive husband.”
Surely, Mexico will not be the exception and if Xóchitl Gálvez or Claudia Sheinbaum Pardo win, we will not see much of their partners, nor will they receive a specific title. Do you think there should be one?
