It all boils down to who gets to define normalcy: the norm or the abnormal?

If that’s the case we should be aware that the abnormal have been defining it for years. The DSM (Psych handbook of mental disorders) has been re-written several times over the last 20 years or so. It used to classify homosexuality as a mental disorder until the homosexuals took over the profession (or at least the part of the profession that writes the DSM). The DSM has continued to redefine ever more deviant behavior as “normal”.
