Yep, this is pretty much what I see with young lesbians over there. No there isn't anything wrong with transitioning as an AGP male— we're allowed to do what we want with out bodies as adults, however young girls in those communities need to understand that the people they are interacting with are basically heterosexual males, so they need to treat them with the same caution as they would treat heterosexual males. It backfires on the lesbian / trans community to tell young girls that they should treat transbians as women, as lesbians end being put in situations where they feel unsafe and cotton onto the fact that transbians are essentially heterosexual men, and so they run for the hills as you put it. The end result of that is that the lesbian side of the community doesn't support the transbian side and vice-versa, and they end up socialising in different circles anyway.
