The former you get almost everywhere in the world. The latter is much worse here in Italy than in the UK, but actually I think is improving.

I don’t know Naples, but here in Abruzzo there seems to be two definite sides of the coin regards race, some people are lovely with everyone, others are simply just anti anything/person not �������� or even just not from their village!

Naples is a port city and a real melting pot, so I doubt that you will get much actual racism.  However Italy is still institutionally racist - and not PC at all - its still fine to black up on telly and do silly voices, so tehre will be lots of times you will be left open mouthed at what people do and say.   For sexism its a different matter - Naples is one of the most shameless places Ive ever lived - you and your kids will need to put away any bashfuness and be able to turn round and give the toucheruppers and commenters a good mouthful.
