Yep, I’ve heard a few stories about women being challenged in female bathrooms. But in every case I’ve ever heard of, as soon as they spoke to the person or got a good look at them, the situation was resolved.

We’re extremely well evolved to tell the difference between males and females. And I think it’s pretty rare that anyone cares enough to challenge at all (correct me if I’m wrong).

The issue is those cases where it’s very clearly a man in a women’s bathroom. The wider issue of homophobia, sadly, is harder to solve.

At a public restroom at Sunset Point on the way back from the Grand Canyon my sister told be that when she went into to women's room, she encountered a very Butch woman and thought she had gone into the men's room and let out an "Oh, my God!" before realizing her error. She said she was certain that the lady in question knew what that was about. My sister felt bad about it, but in retrospect, the masculine appearance was purposeful. This was before the age of trans.
