The homophobic part is true. Why else would a gay man want to be a woman? He knows he can never be attracted to men, but he wants his relationship with another man to be accepted by his community. Which it won’t, because people know he’s a man. When he dies, his family will put his original name on his grave. On top of that, straight men will still see him as a man, and he will be competing against actual women and other gay/bi men for bisexual men.
