You keep coming back to it like it fucking matters one bit, though. It's been your go to argument from the first. Like "for this reason, we shouldn't consider these people women." Disclosure is required for all people, if you have something to disclose. It doesn't matter what sex or gender you are.
No one here has ever said that a transgender woman and a cisgender woman are the exact same thing. Not a single person, that I have seen here, is claiming that everyone should just disregard the fact that a transgender woman has a penis. We're saying their brains are more similar in the portions that define gender in a person, and that their body doesn't match. Since we cannot change pathways in the brain as yet, we change the body. We are challenging the notion that these people just "want to be x gender" instead of the idea that they really are x gender. But you keep on going back to this idea of "what if they trick me into bed and then pull a whaddayaknow! on me! I'll be mortified and scarred! I do declare!" shit, and it's stupid.
I can only go by the two pre-operative transgender people I know well enough to talk about this stuff with, and neither of them would ever get into a sexual encounter with someone who wasn't informed. Actually, one of them has been troubled so much by this in her life that she is still a virgin. In fact, for the one who has had sexual encounters, it has been the other way around. There are a lot of straight guys out there that fethisize the Chicks with Dicks genre of porn, (which is apparently in a top 10 grossing genre) and she gets taken advantage of every now and again. Goes to my point. Not fully informing someone is part of the travails of having casual sex. It happens all the time. Shitty people exist. I would bet, though I have nothing to back it up, that transgender people are less likely to be perpetrators of this little scenario you are so afraid of.

"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
