Yes. It is the false belief that TSs are gay that gets TSs beaten and killed. Why should TSs be forced to give up their own morals and be forced to side with people who do things they find offensive? A number of things that would help gays and MtF TG men actually harm TSs. TSs believe in only two genders (hence their surgery). TSism is not an orientation, lifestyle, or a choice, but a born birth condition. The Swaab study proves that TSism is not related to homosexuality.
People object to TSism and homosexuality for different reasons. When people learn that TSism has nothing to do with homosexuality, that the "TSs" who support gay issues are usually not really TSs, that TSism is a medical condition that involves NO behavioral element, and that TSs never change who they are (ie., the surgery makes a person more of what they already are), then they will accept TSs. The most effective way to help TSs is to convince the public that they are mainstream people with mainstream values, and to totally distroy the lie that TSs are really homosexuals.
Now, what if you discovered that it could be homosexuals who are going out of their way to slander TSs, accuse them of being members of their original sex, and accuse them of being gay? What would you think TSs should do if that is happening to them?

Gays and lesbians don't seem to understand transsexuals any better than straight people. Heck, even transgendered people such as cross dressers and drag queens often don't seem to understand transsexuals. There is actually a lot of hostility among lesbians toward transsexuals, both female-to-male and male-to-female. GLBT lobbyists often are willing to sell out transsexuals in order to get what they want. The very fact that GLBT groups lump transsexuals (people with a medical condition) in with transgendered (people with fetishes) shows a lack of understanding. Is it any wonder some transsexuals have less than warm fuzzy feelings toward the GLBT community?

No, we're all in the same leaking boat of social acceptability...
Trans people are probably the most feared "sex" because people internalize their choice and it freaks them out when it's really none of their business.
Also, Trans is less about sexuality than it is about gender. Gay is sexual. i.e. a straight man can become a lesbian. The object of desire doesn't necessarily change (and typically doesn't) when gender is changed...
