        People asking about the Y axis, it's density, or number of people, just like the IQ distribution or any number of other bell curves

        People saying "what's the middle part, people who both understand and don't understand?!" You... don't understand. Look at the X axis

        One easy way to remember is that the letter Y has a vertical line in it and also represents the vertical axis on the left - x is the bottom

        The Gauss normal distribution is a tool of the patriarchy, as is obvious by its sexist misogynic phallic shape.

        It's a great graphic that will somewhat ironically go right over the heads of the people who are outraged
