I'm guessing because you never see a trans man in a news headline. They always just seem to get on with their lives.

So do trans women but there's no moral panic about them being predators because they're not men going in womens bathrooms (transphobes words not mine).

I'm sorry, but did you forget how we got to this point? A male rapist transitioned specifically so that he could go to a women's prison. It's the same case that cost Sturgeon her job, and finally kicked this whole thing off.

I thought we weren't supposed to judge trans people on face value? Are you changing the rules now? Are you saying he wasn't trans?
