Italy elects first transgender mayor
Gianmarco is best known from his television appearance on the local TV show ‘Love me Gender’. On the show he said: “I have always felt like a man.” He added: “I had the courage, through various operations, to find myself once and for all.
However, Gianmarco isn’t the first transgender politician to be elected in Italy: Vladimir Luxuria became the first openly transgender member of parliament in Europe when she was elected in 2006.
