My mom and sister are ISFJs as well and I differ from them a lot. They are both very neat people who love cleaning while I can't stand chores. I do them but I struggle to. Both my sister and mom actually enjoy doing chores. They are both very grounded people who don't enjoy fiction as much as I do. My mom loves talking on the phone while my sister is pretty social as well. I'm not at all. My sister watches simple comedies that make her laugh, but I look for deep emotional resonance in entertainment. I like books that reflect who I am and what I feel. Some of my favorite books are Catcher in the Rye, Perfume, Mysterious Skin and IT. I love these books because they are highly sentimental, weird and dark. I love deeply sad music that is similar to my book taste. I'm highly apathetic and don't seem to care about anything. Both my sister and my mom tend to think about others while I think about myself. I do think about others but can be pretty self-centered.
If it helps here are my cognitive function results

That sounds about right, if saying other people no is your biggest pat peeve then definitely, you are a ISFJ

MBTI is 4 dichotomies, with each person falling somewhere on the continuum of each. My point is that every human is different and almost everyone is going to score differently to some extent. My point being that "normal" is so subjective as to be essentially useless in terms of typology.
