What about a general shift for males to be more heterosexual than homosexual? Not saying this happens, but your statement obviously can be false. It is possible for all women to win.
I'm not sure that would be a net win for all women. Suppose a similar proportion of women are lesbians to the proportion of men who are gay, and if more men were straight instead of gay, lesbians would face increased competition for bisexual partners.
That is an excellent point. I didn't notice this since we've (for the entire post) operated under pretty restrictive heteronormativity. It wouldn't be a win for all women, but it would be a win for all women that we've been talking about.
