Does the gay femboy want his degenerate lifestyle validated by normal people? Or is he content to say "yeah I'm defective, no one should aspire to be like me, and it's appropriate for me to troll for other defects in the seedy parts of town far away from respectable people"?
Being treated "normally" comes with certain expectations that one look and act "normally". If how he looks in the video is how he looks in public, I'm not confident I would consider those expectations met.
He's of course under no obligation to care what I think, but perhaps he should expect that some people won't treat him "normally".
I guess a key difference here is "wants" vs "expects". Like someone else said in this thread, he's not demanding we give him respect under threat, he's asking politely.
My entire life the gays were always "asking politely", yet whenever someone said "no" then "wants" became "expects"; and a law making that "no" illegal soon followed. So I'm skeptical of that.
But even if I accepted it, a lot of behaviors shouldn't be treated "normally". If a man abused his wife and children, would we respect him just because he "asked politely" to be treated normally instead of "demanding" it? Or would we think there was something wrong with him for even entertaining the notion that what he was doing was "normal"?
The latter was the norm for homosexuality in my lifetime.

Watch the video. By his own words, he does not want to be defined by his sexuality. He wants to be treated normally and not put on a pedestal.
So a bit of both I guess.

From a distance he just looks like one o them dang old hippies that need to get sent to 'Nam. I might give him the stink eye but wouldn't harass him.
He looks like a mid-00s emo chick to me. I'd be polite but have a chuckle about it when he was out of earshot.

That earns respect in my book.
