@jenfw you said “If men want to attack, they will - and the kind that do this, from my experience, aren't going to go to the trouble (or humiliation) of wearing a dress*
But it is beyond naive to suggest that men who claim to be women/ have trans identities/ have gender dysphoria are always harmless to women and children. You have no way of knowing what they do when you are not around. You do not know what is in their heads. There are men who turn out to be rapists and abusers that no one suspected (openly at least) at the time - men with and without trans identities. Are you personally vouching for every single one?
EVIDENCE ALERT
It seems to be timely to remind people about this paper that found that PAEDOPHILIA was a concerning finding amongst men seeking gender reassignment surgery.
The paper, describing the retrospective analysis of 5 years of referrals in Oxfordshire, found that a “small group described gender reassignment as a means by which to increase their intimate contact with children, which they viewed to be more socially acceptable in a female role.”
This group numbered 2 out of 38 men referred over just 5 years IN OXFORDSHIRE ALONE.

So, yes men will go to great lengths including taking hormones and having surgery in order to satisfy their desires, and some of those desires are a threat to women and children.
The trans identifying paedophile men mentioned in this paper were gatekept out of referral to a gender reassignment clinic… at that time. But we have no way of knowing what has happened to them since. Self ID will have only emboldened them. Surgery can be had abroad. Trans ideology lobbies to make it easier to get referrals and GRCs without any psychiatric assessment. The same paper says that many patients had other psychiatric comorbidities and that Axis II disorders (personality disorders) are likely underreported.
Yes it’s not all men, trans or otherwise, but it’s many, too many, and there has been a highly co-ordinated campaign to play on people’s emotions using highly curated sob stories about poor trans identitying men, which have obscured the more complex psychological picture. Amnesty and others are enthusiastically complicit in this.
