> Not normal doesn't imply bad, it means not normal "Normal" is derived from "norm" which does indeed carry a strong moral connotation. Someone who is not normal ("abnormal") is failing to live up to society's norms. There's a reason why people have been pushing against using this word for years — it has a negative connotation. If you're trying to simply say "statistically uncommon", then "atypical" or "unusual" are better neutral words.
