Yes, this is what the world has come to. We categorize and label people like we're perfect, because from day one, we're taught by the people around us that we're the best, and we therefore have the right to look at people a certain way. We're taught that there is a norm, and that this norm is one we must submit to. And then at some point, they screw up whatever understanding we had about those norms, and tell us that we must become individuals, special and unique. Then, all we have is whatever we used to believe, and what they're trying to make us believe, which is right about when they leave us hanging.
