I think there's some confusion with this due to people not articulating themselves well. Men may just want you to play the role of a stereotypical/traditional "cis" woman... not to actually identify as a "trans" woman.

I've come across this as a masculine/gnc lesbian. Feminine women (typically bisexual women, not lesbians) want me to play the role of a stereotypical/traditional "cis" man. I'm expected to take the trash out, clean the vehicle, (if they have sons) teach boys how to be boys, etc. For example: A bi ex asked me to teach her 2 year old son how to piss while standing because she didn't want him to "pee like a girl" by sitting on the toilet. She had 3 brothers who could've taught him that. I had to demonstrate with my dildo lol

Believe me, that's not what some of these bisexual guys mean. The ones who have internalized homophobia but are attracted to feminine men will try to "other" men like me and try to make it out like we're not men which justifies in their puzzled mind that it's "not gay". The ones who don't have internalized homophobia? Yeah they fit what you're talking about and they don't "other" men like myself.

The story about your ex, that's definitely kinda weird, I'm not gonna lie lol
