They explicitly state that he’s not trans in the movie as well, but yes that movie was a lot of peoples first or only exposure to the idea of gender transition and that’s probably done a lot of harm.
Explicitly claiming that a trans person isn't trans, but instead has a weird fetish is already transphobic as fuck, it's an integral part of what makes Silence of the Lambs the 20th century's most transphobic work of art.
