The first two after typing "men dressed as women attacking women"  Feel free to continue the research.  It is happening maybe not as often as a murder in Chicago but it is happening regardless of whether you acknowledge it or not.
 

The first incident from 2011 is so vague it is three sentences long. It does not explain why the man was dressed as a woman.  It says the man attacked the girl she screamed and was left rattled, but unharmed.

 

The second incident is also a bit vague, but from what I can tell a man stalked a female realtor and tried to lure her into a house.  She seemed to sense there was something off about the situation and didn't take the bait.  So he tried to attack her in front of the property.

 

I will note that neither of these incidents took place in a bathroom.  I acknowledge these incidents exist, but do not accept their existence as an indication this type of thing has not happened in rare occurrences before.  I have cited multiple government officials in states where these laws have been passed (in some cases for decades) state there has been no increase in this type of thing occurring with any increased frequency.

 

Now if you flip the script..

Why is it so easy for me to find incidents of LGBT people being attacked?  These are all within the last year.  The top hit in my search didn't take me to 2011.  It's as if LGBT people are significantly more often the victim of violence..

 

But you are seeking to connect the dots through a simple Google search instead of reality.  You seek men dressed as women attacking women as justification for your argument.  You link to vague incidents, but can you consider that these types of things may have been happening in very rare cases all along?  Can you accept the statements from government officials I linked to when they say there is no increase of such incidents?  That when they say 'no increase' they may be assuming an extremely low percentage of incidents like this which have been occurring from time to time with less of a spotlight as there was previously no reason for you to even enter that Google search?
