Was Buffalo Bill in Silence of the Lambs an autogynephile?

This whole topic is hard for me to decipher, but I think that is what it was going for in the movie at least.

This might be a real autogynephile:

The book and film both explicitly said Bill is not transgender to begin with. I don't know enough of the topic to say for sure whether they reflect this "autogenyphile" concept. As for the video, I don't know how that relates either.
