I strongly hate labels on clothes. is that normal?

Those crappy pieces of white material hanging down from clothes, bedclothes, accesoires, plush toys... I hate labels, I have always hated them, since my early childhood and I'm 20 years old now. If I see any cloth turned inside-out, and the label is visible, I get distracted and irritated by it, and I always turn the cloth around, so that I don't see the label. On my clothes I always cut them off, because their appearance annoys me, and I'm also annoyed by the noise they make when I put the clothes on. It's not like a fear, I'm not afraid of labels. I just find them distracting and extremely annoying. Is it normal?

    When I was a kid I used to HATE when the teacher would erase the blackboard and forget one dot. ONE FUCKING DOT. And it would irritate me big time. So YES it's normal.

    I absolutely detest them. For some very odd reason - as a child I suddenly developed a bad dislike to them and would vomit. I remember that day so well, my mother and sister laughed at me and I pointed and called them 'bernies'. I hate the bastard things and have a habit of scrubbing my hand when touching them to remove. If I see someone with one sticking out of their jumper etc, I would mutter 'dirty bastard'. I won't touch it, he'll no and will look away asap. Yeah I'm weird. My ex wife knew that and filled a watch box full of them when I left. Sick, just sick

    I completley agree! Ofter my lables always stick out and I never realise until I get told by my husband, which is quite annoying! If I see someone I know with their label sticking out I will always say 'your label is sticking out love' I might start cutting them out
