do you think the word "Weird" and "Normal" is subjective?

Very much so, for example is someone acts weird because of things that happened to them when they were young say trauma, are they weird or normal, their behavior is weird but a normal reaction to something else.

Completely.

Most of my friends are 'weird' by 'normal' standards but I consider them 'normal' so it's all perspective.

In a lot of cases, yes.

I think that much of the time, it means "does not conform to cultural rule/s" and "conforms to cultural rule/s".

societally determined by politician, religious groups, and the media.

Everything is subjective to varying degrees.

Yes. Whats normal for someone might be weird for you.

Not entirely. Weird is a deviation from the norm. The norm is what most people like/want/do. I love feet. Most people don't. That would make me objectively weird.

@FeetAreFantastic hmm I don't think that's necessarily true, what is perceived as ' normal ' is not always what most of people believe.
Sometimes it's what upbringing and media tells us is normal

@FeetAreFantastic in a generalized thing...example would be that i like weird people... what does the society think...i still like weird people weird for them...

@quinnVneck I like weird people too. They are more interesting.
