i disagree with the whole "lesbians are the villans" thing here, it mostly started with trans women who have atraction with cis-women and wanted to try date some that are lesbians, some of them refused a relationship saying that they didn´t feel attracted to them because they still had male genitallia, that argument ended up hurting some transwomen feelings because they don´t see them as women, and insted of being "ok, you´re not physically atracted to me, that´s fair, everyone has their type" they went on and say that something like that was transphobic and started a trend called "cotton ceiling" wich conssist at convincing lesbians of having sex with them or they will be considered as terfs, and most of the people are ignoring this side of the story
Nobody said "lesbians are the villains". Hell, a lot of the trans women involved are lesbians. It's more a case that a lot of the villains claim to speak on behalf of all lesbians, and therefore by definition disagreeing with them is anti-lesbian.
A lot of what you're saying is basically TERF/"Gedner Critical" talking points about the so-called "cotton ceiling", a phrase almost exclusively used in TERF circles. it was originally the title of a relatively obscure talk given at a conference some years ago, about trans women getting frozen out in the dating scene. The TERFs, of course, took it to extremes as a propaganda tool and use it to suggest that trans women want to force cis women to have sex with them by any means possible, up to and including rape. It's very much the same "they're invading women's spaces/bathrooms and forcing themselves on us" bullshit that informs a lot of TERF rhetoric.
