Transactivists here are pushing an agenda (which mostly benefits straight males in garb, you're 100% right there) that affects all women's safety. There is actually a bill in the Philippines that TRAs are urging politicians to pass that will eventually allow males in women's bathrooms, to go against the tide would be punishable (6 years imprisonment and fines), all these under the guise of "discrimination". And yes, I'd say lesbian women are definitely the most affected demographic in every asian country. You're also right about the different female demographic who are transitioning, most of the transmen here are lesbian females (some bi) who have dysphoria.

If you are talking about East Asia, there isn't really any such thing here as straight women wanting to become men.

I wouldn't rule out the possibility, albeit there being a small number of them.

What the west and east has in common regarding this issue is that women who are speaking up are actively being silenced and hounded. It's why we need to organise, so that dysphoric women have a safe space and each other to talk to, as well as have access to resources that spell out truths about pharma and transitioning. All they have now are what transactivists are loud about and put out there, which are misleading and actually harmful.
