Hawaii seemed at least from the time I lived there in 95 to have a less homophobic/transphobic attitude from the mainland. A bi female friend pointed this out, she danced Hula and said male Hula dancers were not held in the disfavor they might have experienced on the mainland. I can't say more than that, my experience was limited at the time.
But it leads me to wonder about the connection between native islanders and native Americans. Both cultures have profound and often uncanny connections to the land and to nature as well as being polytheistic and coincidentally trans tolerant in many ways. Hmm, nature...human nature, wonder if theres a connection?
