We all know we're unique individuals but
the important question is, are you normal?
For example if you're right-handed,
then yes you're in the norm.
85% of the global population is as well.
And even if both of your parents
are left-handed there's only a 25%
chance that you will be too but,
if you can't roll your tongue you're not
normal. 65% to 81% of the
population can.
Have dark hair normal and only 0.5% of people have red hair
Had your wisdom teeth removed,
around 65% of people worldwide need this done.
And if you wear glasses, you
may be part of the growing norm
affecting around 2.5 billion people worldwide.
It's believed that increased
indoor activity in childhood plays a
major role in the risk of being
nearsighted. If you're single in the U.S
you're normal as well. 'phew' 50.2% of
adults in America are single, which is a
big shift from 1970 when only 37.4% were unwed.
Worldwide however 80% of adults have married.
Regardless of marital status the
average age to have a baby in the U.S
is 22.8 for women and, 25.4 for men where
is somewhere like Chad the average is 17.9.
While Greece is 31.2 years old and
if you just had a baby and its name is Sophia
or a variant of that, so did most
other normal parents given that it's the
top baby name in nine countries.
If you're having safe and protected sex
your normal too, 65.8%
of men between 15 to 44 report
using a condom the first time they had sex.
Compared to 2006 where only
47.7% used one
This trend is even more prevalent among
teens between 15 to 19 years old with
78.1% using condoms their first time.
But what age is normal to lose your
virginity? When sexual intercourse is
defined as penile to vaginal sex, the CDC
found an average age for American women
to be 17.2 years old and,
16.8 for men. Have a job?
61.3% of people are employed with
the most common or normal occupation in
America being retail jobs followed by,
cashier's, office clerks, food prep, and
serving, registered nurses, and wait staff.
But if you're serving somebody who
enjoys dairy past childhood, they aren't normal.
Approximately 75% of
adults in the world have some form of
lactose intolerance, meaning they
experience unpleasant digestive symptoms
from dairy products.
And if they're a vegetarian, they're in the minority too,
with only 4-5% in North America
and a little over thirty percent
in India excluding meat from their diet.
Have a birthday in February? Weirdo!
Most people are born around August and
September. Statisticians theorize that as
the temperature drops, people spend less
time outside, causing things to heat up
in the bedroom and nine months later,
lots of babies are born. And these babies
are feeding from an average bra size in
America of 36c, an increase from the
34b, fifteen years ago. And the average erect
penis size? 13 centimeters or 5 inches
which is smaller than initial studies
found but, most of those relied on
self-reporting as opposed to actual
study measurements. If you're not exactly
feeling normal now, at don't worry we
have a whole video on why humans are
weird as well. Like why does water leak
from our eyes, when we're sad or, why do
we bang our hands together to show
approval? Click on the screen or the link
