No one is saying that. It isn't insecurity to have the self awareness to know that lolita isn't within the realm of "normal" fashion. I wear lolita no matter what but I know that if I go out I might get stared at, and that is okay. I don't care about stares or comments, but I'm not going to complain about them, because i signed up for that when I started wearing lolita.

I've been in the fashion for a decade, before OTT was really a "thing". Normies think Lolita is weird. If they didn't think Lolita is weird, the coordinate would have to be super toned down barely-lolita casual classic. To a normal person even the simplest of lolita dresses are costumey. You've been in the fashion too long and its distorted your opinion of what constitutes casual and what doesn't.

It also depends on where you live, if you're in a small town, the more easier it will be to look weird to a normal person.

And most people only wear those OTT coordinates at events, surrounded by other Lolitas anyway so who cares.
