I think that the reason is that people who sexually assault people usually dont have great logical skills.

Excellent point, and if nonvisible then no difference. I haven't looked into it but my immediate thought about the trans woman risk claims is that it is very likely based on small sample size since a large sample doesn't exist.

I don't know of any studies off hand, but one obvious hypothetical would be that some fragile guys might get angry/violent when finding out that a girl they found attractive is trans and feel like they have to prove their manliness (and that they're totally NOT still attracted).

Also "corrective" rape is a thing. "You want it? I'm gonna hurt you with it until you don't".

It's no weirder than the fact of women instigating domestic violence just as often as men do, despite that women take the most physical damage from such an endeavor, sex differences being what they are. Doesn't make any sense, yet there it is.

Good point. Also, I don't have hard data for this handy, but I think trans women are possibly more likely to end up in vulnerable positions (being poor/homeless for example), and that may lead to higher rates of assault

Visibly trans doesnt equate to appearing female. In fact if there is a higher rate for trans assault it's most likely the men that fall into that category....
