I'm very conflicted about this.
Because on one part, sure, sometimes people use this rhetoric to be transphobic, on the other hand there is my personal experience as a cis woman who is always "clocked" as non-binary and assigned by default the they/them pronoun in LGBTQ+ circles because I don't wear any make up, dress sporty all the time and don't shave (and I'm very VERY hairy. I have a light moustache and some beard, too).
I'm just a cis lesbian who doesn't shave, lol.
I actually got into "a fight" with someone (who was clearly not in their right mind at that moment. idk why tho) because they kept insisting that me NOT identifying as non-binary was actually transphobic? That was wild...

I have trans and enby friend who became very comfortable with themselves once they embraced their gender identities and I did the "what is gender????" journey, too, but at the end of the day it turns out I am cis. I just experience my gender differently from a lot of other people (i.e. for me my very hairy legs are actually more feminine than my shaved ones. strange I KNOW. humans are complex).
Being assigned a gender identity different from my own because I don't adhere to certain gender expectations by people from inside the LGBTQ+ community is something that I did not expect but yeah, it happens. Unfortunately to me it happens a lot, especially when I'm in circles with a lot of younger folks.

Similar experience! I went through a frustrating part of my life where I preferred he pronouns but liked dressing androgynously, I got called they/them, assumed to be transfeminine by people I had told I was not, and kept getting asked what my pronouns were and kept getting confused stares when I said "he." This wasn't an issue of not "looking like a guy" to others either, I was assumed to be a guy by everyone outside of a certain queer 18-early 20s bubble of acquaintances, who acted bewildered that I wasn't nonbinary or transfem just because I was gender nonconforming. Like they couldn't understand why I wouldn't just be nonbinary if I didn't dress like other guys, lol?? This is a super weird experience to talk about because plenty of people go through just the opposite, being surrounded by people who don't pick up on their nonconformity and presentation cues at all, and aren't trans accepting. I don't want to minimize that more common shitty experience. My experience was just very frustrating. Fwiw though as I've gotten older I've had many trans friends who are understanding of me being gnc, or gnc themselves, so it may be more of a young person issue, or just a certain type of weird community dynamic that comes up in some queer social spheres now and again...
