Think of it this way: Think of a woman wearing a suit and having a short haircut. Next think of a man wearing a dress and having long hair. Which one is more likely to draw attention in public?

That’s a visibility bias, which obviously exists, but medical statistics that largely eliminate it also show a big disparity.
Also this only applies to people who don’t pass, which is most trans people at some point. And wouldn’t the stigma associated with male feminine crossdressing actually discourage people from coming out and trying to get over the dreaded non-passing period?

not everyone who cross dresses is trans.
part of the appeal of cross dressing, is the stigma.
