No. See, most trans* people in the United States don't go through their transitions well into adulthood. By then a person's sexuality is pretty well cemented--the last little bits and pieces of it tend to fall into place during puberty.

If you consider that the general population's incidence of homosexuality is 10-15% (this is a number biologists believe is true for most mammals, humans included), then the incidence of homosexuality for trans people who transition in adulthood will end up being around 85-90%. There's a little bit of play here, and these numbers don't necessarily count bisexuals, but for the most part, most transwomen are going to be into girls.

I run a gaming group for LGBT people and we have a significant trans* membership, about eighteen people total. Out of all eighteen of them, only one of them has sexual interest in men, and she's an admitted bisexual. I know that anecdotal evidence is not especially useful, but it's something to consider. I can count the number of strictly heterosexual trans* people I've met on one hand... and I've met hundreds of transwomen and transmen.
