interesting idea. i don't know if you're right but it's obvious that the mere existence of gay men is a problem when you are trying to convince everyone that every single man is a (potential) rapist and therefore severe measures are in order to protect women (taking away a few rights from men, such as the right to see their children or the right to be graded in school with the exact same criteria as girls, to deliberately put them some steps below women on the social ladder) -

Gays and RadFem (often lesbians) have NEVER been friends. They allied against common ennemies, but that's it.
Of course, some gay persons and some lesbians developped real frienship. But as groups, it is simply not true. Check among honnest people who knows the backstory (no pun indeed)of the LGBT community
It was - at best- a marriage of reason,but there were lots of internal fights and backstabbing.
Today, the war keeps on. Gay ar labelled 'cis gendered oppressors' by RadFem and some Trans leaders.
