No it is not. I'm a bit surprised you have missed the news on this influx of males into women's spaces, to be honest, given how confident you are that this isn't happening. It's one of the most controversial cultural issues in the public eye right now. And many, many women are quite rightly furious about it.

The worst is prisons. Males are being incarcerated in women's prisons and committing sexual assaults, rapes and impregnations upon the women locked up with them.

They can present however they want, that is not the issue. The problem is males imposing themselves on female-only spaces. Their claims of identity are irrelevant, they shouldn't be there at all.
