The Standard Distribution and Its Implications for Embracing Diversity

In modern society, the acceptance of diversity has become an emphasized value, to promote exclusivity, tolerance, and equality. However, the reality of the standard distribution, the actual distribution of traits and characteristics in populations, presents significant limitations that hinder the meaningful acceptance of diversity as a norm. Thus is an inherent incapability of the standard distribution and the obstacles it creates in fully embracing diversity.

The standard distribution, also known as the bell curve or Gaussian distribution, is a statistical model used to represent the distribution of data in a population. It suggests that the majority of individuals will cluster around the mean, with fewer individuals found at the extremes. This model provides a general understanding of population distribution, it locates the complexity and nuances of human diversity at the edges of the scale.

One consequences of the standard distribution is its tendency to homogenize individuals within a group reinforces societal hierarchies and shows traits closer to the mean as "normal," while those deviating from the norm are simply by definition "abnormal." This hierarchical thinking, as outlined by the standard distribution, highlights individuals not inside the statistical average.
