    I thought Balkanites in Greece are way more stigmatised than Italians, given their low social status and (in the case of Albanians and Bosnians) their religion.

    There are no Bosniaks in Greece.

    they are. but most people don't care about stereotypes or religion, especially the new generations and there's too many Balkanites living here so intermarriage becomes inevitable.

    Bosnians
    In Greece live only Bosnian Serbs, so they're seen as Serbs.

    I was speaking in part hypothetically. More generally, judging by stats I've read, Greeks seem to be among the most ethnonationalist and traditionalist of Western Europeans, and are more so than even some Eastern European groups.

    That is because they are not western Europeans.

    They are at least in a political sense - they joined NATO and not the Warsaw Pact, they joined the EU two years before Spain and Portugal did and two decades before the great expansion eastwards.

    In terms of Europe's socially liberal vs socially conservative divide, generally I'd say it goes roughly: NW Europe>SW Europe>NE Europe (not Russia)>SE Europe>Russia (special case). (That said, specifically in terms of social acceptance of homosexuality, Pew Survey puts Spain third in the world behind only Sweden and Netherlands and above UK, France and Germany): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Societ..._homosexuality

    Greeks are between southern Europe, Balkans and Anatolia, but that part which is quite westernized and southern European like is rather similar to Southern Italy, not southern France for example.
    I doubt many people see south Italians as benchmark of western Europe socially or culturally.

    Hate against homosexuals is often related to repressed homosexuality in my opinion.
