Do heterosexuals outnumber homosexuals and bisexuals in the LGBTQ movement yet?

Probably. It seems like the majority of T are straight people now. Q is pretty much entirely straight people who want to feel special.

Honestly, this just makes me feel sad for straight women. Apparently, there’s a whole lot of dudes out there who are into weird shit and have messed up views of women while maintaining some facade of normalcy. By the time they get to lesbians, we can see they’re a creep, but straight women aren’t getting the billboard about it until it’s too late.

From what I remember of Lisa Littman's and Abigail Shrier's research, the rate of young women identifying as trans or queer is drastically outpacing the rate of young men identifying as trans or queer (even though those stats used to be reversed). Consequently, the TQ+ craze is actually impacting the dating pool for straight men more so than for straight women.

Most people are straight though. It must mostly impact lesbians, because lesbians keep identifying as "men" & men keep identifying as lesbians.

But yeah, the phenomenon Shrier & Littman refer to is what has introduced a heap of heterosexuals girls into the trans population. It's become a sub-culture.
