I never said all trans people are trans because of sexual abuse. Just seems like most are, at least from what I've personally heard.
"Every cowboy I met provided me with sexual favors" its a statement meant to associate a category to an observed behavior, and preys on existing bias to lead the reader to the conclusion you want to support. First of all, I can't qualify, or quantify it. "every (object) I ever met" its just ambiguous, and not helpful. How that type of perception/behavior association manifests itself IRL:
"I'm a cop and I deal with "black people" all day long arresting them, they are all criminals" leading the police office to the following belief: as a cop I deal with criminals, some of those criminals are black, therefor I irrationally draw a conclusion that a lot of "black people" are criminals. (black people can be substituted for any minority in whatever region you are in)
It sounds like you have a theory, and you should test that theory by expanding your scope, instead of just cementing your observation as fact, which other denizens of this forum will leap at the opportunity to find another transphobe they can "joust" with
