As others said, it seems like it's because of sexism and misogyny. Maybe socialization leads many or most transwomen to complain like men and many or most transmen to (not) complain like women, so more often than not transwomen get their way. I don't think that female-ness is generally viewed negatively by transwomen, so maybe being conscientious of how transmen feel about being grouped like that isn't viewed as very important or given much consideration.

I have such a hard time believing that anyone actually likes this kind of phrasing and terminology. It seems like we're all being trolled (I really hope that we are)
