Should he come to Italy, he would be seen as a freak by the majority of the population.
The whole "being trans is stunning and brave" thing hasn't grown roots here yet (*) : when people spot a tranny on the street, they look at him like they would watch a freak dancing in a 1930's circus. And even a lot of the people who support them just do it by talking, they don't want a tranny near them or their kids (and rightly so), because they consider them mentally disturbed (in other words, they don't see them as "heckin cute and valid!!!", but rather as some mentally disturbed people that need help).
Also, I find it funny that Keffals thinks that people hate him just because he's trans, and not because he's an asshole that is intoxicating teenagers with do-it-yourself HRT and openly encouraging swatting.
(*) I've said "yet" because this kind of social shit from overseas tends to arrive here sooner or later. It's just a matter of time.
