100% cos the TERFs are already trying to get trans folk kicked out of space by "running to mummy telling tales". I've seen cases where the "women's group" in question has replied "We are inclusive, including trams women and not excluding them, you can stay too if you behave" which is the best let TERFs self-exclude and might teach them how much of a minority they still are.
I am reminding lots of people, none of us can prove we're cis, and most places have no capacity to "chromosome test" where I guarantee a % of people will discover they are intersex. My view is if the alleged-trans person has to "prove their sex" then so does every single person who demands that data from the trans person. If the accusers/complicit won't do it, then trans folk and cis allies accused should not do it. Fuck up the system. Make it hard. Make it more hassle to challenge than not. Argue back. Derail. Delay. Deflect. Use all the tactics of power right back at them. Be More Annoying Than TERFS around transphobia and otherwise Be A Normal Human (which TERFs are incapable of doing)!
