The whole "autogynephilia" thing has always kind of struck me as similar to the "you gotta stay constantly vigilant because the devil is constantly trying to tempt men into having gay sex" thing. Like, yeah, if you conceptualize it as pathological, you're gonna feel like there's something wrong with you. But it only feels weird when you're feeling it from the "wrong side," so to speak.
(later edit: it turns out maybe I don't actually know what autogynephilia is, so I might be confused...)
