Mrs Doubtfire

Loving but irresponsible dad Daniel Hillard, estranged from his exasperated spouse, is crushed by a court order allowing only weekly visits with his kids. When Daniel learns his ex needs a housekeeper, he gets the job -- disguised as an English nanny.

Not exactly stalking, but I'd find it pretty disturbing if I found out my ex had been sneaking in to my house in disguise.

Very adjacent. Mrs. Doubtfire is a man pretending he’s a woman (specifically a nanny) to see his kids after losing custody. When they find out Doubtfire has a penis, it’s immediately assumed that this is a sexual predator. The same man pretends to be many other women that he thinks his kids shouldn’t be trusted with, one of them being a trans woman (the kids’ mom immediately assumes, again, that this is a predator).

Robin Williams’ character impersonates stereotypes of other races as well as a trans woman (the reaction his wife gives to the latter is particularly offensive). There are a few other scenes that would qualify as transphobic if the Robin Williams character was actually trans (namely the kids freaking out after he pees standing up) but he’s not.
