No, it's pretty much solely based on Serrano's words (who says in the following article that she split up with her long-term partner around 2010). Like these words, from the same article in 2014:
> I’ve spent much of the last decade writing about trans woman exclusion and trans woman irrelevancy in queer women’s communities.
and these words from the same article:
>
> I certainly do not expect every cis queer woman to swoon over me. And if it were only a small percentage of cis dykes who were not interested in trans women at all, I would write it off as simply a matter of personal preference. But this not a minor problem—it is systemic; it is a predominant sentiment in queer women’s communities.
and these words from the same article:
> In other words, queer women’s spaces fulfill our need for sexual validation. Unless, of course, you are a trans woman. And personally, with each passing year, it becomes harder and harder for me to continue to take part in a community in which I am not seen as a legitimate object of desire.
This is also a person who wrote an entire book about how feminist and queer women communities should be more inclusive to trans women (the book is called: Excluded: Making Feminist and Queer Movements More Inclusive), and who does things like write about the "FAAB mentality" and why it's a problem in blog posts.
This is also a person who coined the word "transmisogyny" in order to make queer women's communities open up to her.
