Two good points actually. Especially the first one. The immigration thing only works as you say if they've just moved in. You could make the case for his creepy friend doing that but Kieran is a lifelong resident. No I think you're right.

The argument for me is that Kieran and the others did not arrive to the area and immediately get identified as "other" as in the case of immigration; they were part of the community who "changed" and the community re-evaluated them from a new perspective (to mirror coming out of the closet). Also the make-up works as a metaphor for "acting masculine/hetero".
