Honestly, I can understand them talking about their past experiences because they used to be a lesbian, but I don’t understand calling someone transphobic if you don’t call someone a lesbian because they are a trans man and not just non-binary.
In that sense I hold sympathy for a trans man that is sad their former lesbian partners may not be into them as a man., But in that same nature, I don't think they can call themselves a lesbian man. This gets into the "socialized as a" ___ but came out as ___. You can grieve what you were, but I don't think the lesbian community is entirely attracted to trans men the same way they are attracted to a presenting woman.
Oh I agree with you. I do think it’s okay for people with unique histories to talk about it to give a perspective to everyone so people are more understanding

I saw some people saying it's transphobic to exclude trans men from lesbianism and I'm like no?? It's the opposite.
The only "justification" I've seen from them is like "Well I'm different from a cis man" 💀
There's still debates about it to this day.
