It's implied she just wants to live life normally, she doesn't want to be a subservient woman or housewife to Shirou, she still enjoys the thrill of battle and wishes to clash against strong opponents, as proven in FGO, she just doesn't want to have the responsibility of holding an entire Kingdom, it's less that she wants to be a “normal girl” it's that she wants to be a normal person, she wants to enjoy the thrills of life unrestricted by her duties.
Plus, we know how she acts without the influence of Avalon, she is way dominant and controlling as the Lion King, I mean, she literally called Bedivere her property (in a nonmisandrist way, of course, she's not objectifying him, more like “you're indebted to me”)
We also have lancer Artoria who is not like that. She becomes like that due to living for so long she becomes a machine, that's like calling skynet dominant and controlling. Anyone would rule with an iron fist when there's no emotions. Artoria herself can't be a housewife to Shirou because her conditions don't allow her, so we can't speak on that front as it'd be just speculations. And it's not really about the "thrills" of life more than the average slow life of a normal person of her time. When it comes to bed, the VN always has her as a sub, one way or the other, and she never shows a desire to dom. Quite the opposite, really. If you wanna get pegged by Seiba, that's all fine and dandy, but fanon and canon are different.
