if `GL_CULL_FACE `with `GL_BACK `culls the front, it has to mean that the normals of the objects are flipped right ?

No. GL_CULL_FACE controls the discard order of triangles.

are u saying it's the other way around of what I think it does ? GL_BACK means it discards the front faces?

What I mean is that GL_CULL_FACE and glFrontFace have nothing to do with normals

glFrontFace controls which vertex order should be considered "front".
GL_CULL_FACE controls what is being discarded: front or back
Normals is completely separate entity
