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).

No scene. But a judge says someone needs psychiatric help near the end. Mute the judge after Robin Williams closing speech in court near the end. And then you can unmute when the scene ends :)

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.
