When people say "it doesn't happen" they don't mean it's never happened in the whole of history - how would anyone know to make that claim? What they mean it's not happening with the frequency in which is it being made to look like it is.

People are called TERFS and transphobes when they weaponise a minute occurrence of a CIS MAN cosplaying as a trans woman as an example of a "trans issue" when literally no actual trans person was involved in the situation.

Let's flip things around instead. If a man pretended to be a straight woman and went into a gay club and attacked a trans person, and people said it was a "woman issue" it would justifiably be called sexist. Imagine then that straight women were no longer allowed in gay clubs because trans people were at risk from... erm... *checks notes* men.
