I don't think there is "rise" in lgbt movement in recent years, more like rise of acceptance as you alluded to. LGBT genders have existed for as long as humans have existed. There are many cultures that recognise and even exalt third genders, like the muxe in Mexico and bakla in Philippines. But what you say may have some merit.
