Got it in one! Everybody's at it. That's what normality is. It changes over time and place, of course. Alan Bennett writes beautifully about his mother's idea of normality in Yorkshire in the 50s. She was so unworldly that her idea of broaching normality was to get some sherry in and some biscuits so she and her husband could 'branch out a bit'. She asked the vicar if he might like some for morning tea (big mistake!). She became depressed. I don't think anybody should upset themselves too much about this world-wide conspiracy. Just find some people to be comfortable with.
