Lowriding puts both the cars and their owners on display, and more and more of those owners are women. Super Show producer Mark Sermeno, who started lowriding in 1985, shares how car clubs have evolved. Initially, women were excluded, but when a woman purchased a treasured Impala, the club changed their bylaws, showcasing an openness born from love for vehicles. The sense of unity and respect has grown, as women now proudly reclaim their space in the culture.
Christina Acuna, representing Las Dueñas, an all-female car club, notes that they now receive acknowledgment and compliments while cruising in their lowriders. This highlights the transformation within the car culture, where gender barriers are diminishing. 'When we cruise low and slow now,' she emphasizes, 'we get a thumbs up.' This shift showcases the changing dynamics and growing inclusion of women in spaces traditionally dominated by men, reflecting a broader acceptance and celebration of diversity in lowriding.
