hug Yep, you know me very well cristina! How are ya sweetheartwave

I can say this about being normal, I'd go crazy trying to do that. I've tried, and I just can't change who I am. I'm just zany like that. Though I do wish I'd be normal when it comes to cleaning regularly like the rest of the northern Europeans...lol

Define "normal", Cristina?! dunno I think it has less distinguishable boundaries than it used to...?!
confused

Perhaps it comes from increasing diversity? Or maybe intolerance? In some cases, it could be TOO MUCH tolerance, BUT mis-applied?

I happen to like diversity but I think the "tolerance" thing is mis-appropriated and disproportional in some cases..........?

The thread is about each person defining what's normal by themselves once they find they aren't normal.laugh rolling on the floor laughing rolling on the floor laughing

Intolerance may lead to classifying others as anormal

Tolerance may not be appropriate

Yes Sharon.



Okay, so if I have to wait until I'm NOT normal, how can I possibly distinguish whether I am normal or not...??!!! dunno

Surely, "normal" means being able to apply thought coherently and lucidly, then making an assessment and, in turn, finding some kind of decision-making process, reaching a conclusion...?

How can I do that if I'm NOT normal...?!! confused

Therefore, if I think I'm normal, I'm not? And if I'm not normal, I would think I am?

Conclusion: I'm insane then?! uh oh help

rolling on the floor laughing

Glad we got that sorted out!! grin

Anormal is non-ordinarly expected.
If you skip the decision-making part, as long as there aren't people reasonably waiting for it, then you may be anormal. So, maybe it's about not doing what you're expected to do that qualifies you as anormal. Therefore, if it's about diversity, unharmed diversity, then you are not anormal...just different.
