That's a normal or 'text book' description of what a normal person is.
How would I define a normal person?
I would say that they pretty much stay within the standard human box of expectation. Normal people don't do any harm, they don't get into trouble with the law. They do everything that society expects them to do.
Because of the restrictions that myself and society places on 'normal'people, I tend to think of them as fictional characters.
Everyone wants to be perceived as 'normal' yet are far from it.
To me it's an unattainable task.

I think our society defines 'normal people' as ones that conform. That fit a standard. People that are lacking observable abnormalities or deficiencies. That's a normal or 'text book' description of what a normal person is.
