Screen responsiveness and water

Is it normal that when my screen (with screen protector) is wet, it becomes unresponsive to my touches?

I haven't tried using the phone wet and without the screen protector, so I don't know if it happens because of the protector or it is supposed to be like that... But when it has water on the screen, I can't even use it because it won't recognize my fingers,or recognizes the touches erratically.

Thanks for answers!
