Jib 0 #2 June 27, 2003 Depends how you define it. Lots of people are average. Normal today means something very different than 50 years ago too. So, a better question is were you ever normal? -------------------------------------------------- the depth of his depravity sickens me. -- Jerry Falwell, People v.

lawrocket 3 #3 June 27, 2003 It seems to me that "normal" means something along the lines of "conforming to a standard." Then we must examine the foundation of this, i.e., what is the standard? The normal person is abnormal in many ways. So we see that a normal person is abnormal. Thus, the abnormal person is normal. Ergo, abnormal = normal. We are all normal. We are all abnormal. I'm more abnormal than you, though. My wife is hotter than your wife. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

skydyvr 0 #5 June 28, 2003 If absolutely nothing you ever think or do gets close to the edges of any conceivable bell curve, then you may be normal, but that would probably be a rare enough circumstance to be considered abnormal. . . =(_8^(1) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quade 4 #7 June 28, 2003 Average is responce devided by number of responces. Median is half-way between two extremes. Normal is 1 standard deviation or less from average. By definition, half of all people are below average.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

quade 4 #10 June 28, 2003 Ok, I believe I now understand your question. Yes, some people are "normal" for any one given trait. Very few people could possibly be "normal" for all traits.quade - The World's Most Boring Skydiver Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mrboombosstic 0 #11 June 28, 2003 i dont' believe in the definition of normality, for wut is normal to some people isn't to others. Take the issue in this forum....we have sodomy...to some its normal as kissing, to some its the most abnormal action one can take. thus...i don't think there is one definition...i think its a self implied term Procrastination is like masturbation it feels good while your doing it but in the end you realize your only fucking urself Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
