Helen Joyce, the author of the book, 'Trans,' has talked about this but it is often not mentioned. These men forced-teamed the T onto the LGB to gain greater acceptance for the T but they are not and do not represent LGBs. So-called trans 'gender identity' ideology is misogynist and homophobic to its core.
You are right. And many LGBs do not wish to associated with TQ++++s, which is one reason the LGB Alliance (UK) was formed in 2019 by refugees from Stonewall.

HTH ... 😉🙂
'Trans-identified male' (which Wiki - whoever that is - claims is derogatory) is more accurate and less likely to lead to confusion. https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/2023/08/06/third-of-britons-dont-know-trans-women-born-male/
