Take a look at the "Bifauxnen" entry on TVTropes and read the long list in the manga section.

The japanese and western views on LGBT are quite different. In japanese works, those are generally seen as laughable perverts (though not in a mean way), quite far from the "this is a very serious issue, check your privilege" here in the West.

We already know Nico who is your typical "okama"... so Ishida does induge in stereotypes.

I'm not sure he'll take the transgender issue as seriously as the SJW down there, people who despite their "tolerance" are quite americanocentric or eurocentric and have trouble understanding/accepting cultural differences over progressiveness. Although I doubt they will ever blame japanese culture for not being up-to-date with "social juctice" : the only thing they fear more than being called transphobic or homophobic is being called racist.
