Nothing particularly special, but lately I've seen a lot of "is doing X normal?" on the forumz.


http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/normal

conforming to a type, standard, or regular pattern

average

"Normal" is merely the average, or less than one or two standard deviations from the average.


Particularly relevant to the social aspect of life.

I have been eating, pooping, peeing, and sleeping. I am worried I might be suffering from 'normal personality disorder' since I cannot abstain from these rituals. What should I do?

I find it odd that certain normal activities (farting, pooping, and sex) are privatized not considered "normal" even though everyone does those things. Why is that? (not looking for evolutionary reasoning.)

only halfway there
TA most of the people are asking probably because they are new to typology and are wondering if it is normal for the type so they can place themselves accordingly. :angel:
