As much as I am part of the problem, LOL, I probably shouldn't comment on this but I've never been one to shy away from intellectual debate.
It's one thing to say that Cis-folks (cis is the Latin opposite of trans for the unaware) should learn more about the broader depth of transexuality, but let's be fair here... there's a huge self loathing subculture of steath which permeates the trans community. Most sane, stable, attractive transwomen go into "stealth" mode, hiding in plain sight. It is rare you see such a person as a visible, outspoken advocate for the less sane, stable and attractive among us. As a result, it leaves sex workers (be it prostitues, escorts, webcam girls, porn stars) as the most visible among us. Personally I decided that since I faced a world that hated and feared us and for some dumb reason I didn't end up with cool mutant powers, I might as well do something fun.
Which brings us back to the OP's question.
It truly does vary from trans person to trans person. I've known some with zero sex drive and others where their engine is so reved up its like watching a Nascar Race. The sexually active likely seems more visible: 1) For the reason I mentioned above; 2) the kind of public places where trans people tend to be out and open and admirers can easily locate us are often tied to sexuality (let's face it: cubs/ bars/ etc are aimed at finding either Mr/ Mrs Right / Right Now); 3) By virtue of dealing with all the baggage related to gender, TS's often also have to delve into the unrelated but sadly entangled, realms of sexuality. Leaving them often far more open and aware of their own sexuality.
My two cents. In all honesty, I know very little in life so feel free to shout me down
