Gender minorities aren't just trans and inter, they're also cis people who don't fit the stereotypes of what their gender should be.
For example about 10% of cis women suffer from PCOS at some point, which messes around with the body's hormones and can cause traditionally masculine things to happen like facial hair or baldness:

When transphobes attack women who don't fit the stereotype of femininity, they are putting cis women into the firing line too.
No one should be judged by how they fit gender stereotypes, especially as it's something beyond their control.
