More to the point... people talk about "normal" as if it's synonymous with "average". It's not. In fact, "normal" often implies everything that fits into the average plus and minus one standard deviation. So normal goes beyond 5'9"+ and 198 lbs.
I prefer normal to average. America has an obesity epidemic, anf there's no reason why transport companies should have to supersize everything because of that.
