Spot on. That's the $64M question. Normal doesn't necessarily mean healthy (although it can and often does) or even that a majority of people do it. In my humble opinion, it means that either
1. 5% of more people do it, or
2. Most people don't do it but still believe it's OK.
"Normal" is one of those nebulous words that has a different meaning for everyone. We all came to this site because the term "normal" meant something significant to us personally.
For example, is it normal to put on weight as you get older (for over 18's, of course)? Yes, but it's not healthy.
IIN for a couple over 40 to have a ridiculously messy bedroom?
