Yeah Marsha P Johnson said multiple times that he identified as a gay man and openly laughed at the people who thought he was a woman.

I really don’t understand the disconnect, if someone has said multiple times “I am a man” and you continue to say “no you’re a transwoman”.

What on earth is the disconnect? Why do you think you know more about this man than he does? If you respect someone you don’t ignore what they say about themselves, and make up an identity for them to self serve. That’s the purest form of disrespect. You are not entitled to decide who Marsha p Johnson was. He was who he said he was. He said he was a man and honestly when radfems are respecting someone’s requested gender identity more than libfems are there is something amiss.
