What does being a “normal girl” even mean? Why is one type of girl treated as normal and another as abnormal?

I was wondering that myself. It’s true that many social “rules” are superficial and nonsensical. You are more true to yourself if you don’t follow them, but you are more likely to be rejected.

I’m also curious about what rules we’re talking about. When I was an undergrad (many years ago), there was a widespread belief that you shouldn’t act the way that women act on campus, e.g. when they go to frat parties or whatever. There is no reason to think this was a good idea, but apparently it was (and I wish I knew more about why).

What I’m saying here is that it’s weird if there are only two types of girls. It’s not the 1950s anymore. There are millions of women in the world, all different. When we act like there are only two types, we treat certain kinds of differences as shameful or “abnormal,” and it seems to me that if we were to stop doing that, and acknowledge that some differences are actually normal or at least neutral… then our social world would also be very strange.
