The End of Average.

“(…) our notion of average, when applied to human beings, is terribly misguided. The belief that variation can be summarized using measures of center is often erroneous, especially when describing people. The ‘average person’ does not exist, but the notion of the ‘Average Man’ is deeply rooted in our culture and social institutions. (…) Sometimes variation—individuality—is the norm, with no meaningful measure of average.”
