I kinda get rape (as disgusting & unethical as it is) being an exertion of power & control. But I simply can't get my head around these men who claim to want a loving uwu girl relationship try to bully women into an essentially abusive long-term relationship. I'm so sorry that lesbians & bi women are now regularly facing this.

It's still about domination. Vampire like, the men want to consume what's within the woman. They are, after all, entitled to it.

One goal is to be validated as a woman themselves. If a woman who wants only women wants them, then they are women. That's why they make the most noise about "gold star" lesbians, women who have never had sex with any man.

Heterosexual women as well, in the case where a partner comes out as trans.

Absolutely. Indeed, this is even more of a parallel than it may at first appear, since these heterosexual women are so often pressured by their now-trans husband/boyfriend to themselves "come out" as... lesbian.

And just in case anyone thinks this is merely for consistency's sake-- because if her partner's supposed to be a woman now, it just follows that she can't be straight anymore, right?-- the fact that bisexual women (who already identified as such) are likewise pressured to declare themselves lesbian really gives the game away. Both in the sense that these men MUST "have" a woman who's exclusively same-sex-attracted to feed their "I'm-a-LAY-DEE" fetish... and that they presume that women are whatever men say we are.

Yeah, some of those "trans widow" stories sound horrific.

Yeah they're pretty sad stories.
