If you're going to hypothesize, doesn't it obligate you to substantiate the claim?

Are predatory men pretending to be transwomen a problem on any statistically noticeable level?

I'm not hypothesizing anything. I'm pointing out that "someone who's biologically male in the women's room" doesn't have to mean "predatory trans-woman" but could be "predatory man pretending to be trans".
And I'm asking you, when you are just-pointing-out, if it's actually happening in a way that is statistically recognizable and thus a contribution to the discourse in question, or if it's not.
