7 0

A taboo is any action or behavior that is not approved by the people in a society.

These types of actions are general against public view and may attract severe punishment but they are sometimes specific to a particular society.

This means that what may be regarded as a taboo to a set of people may not necessarily be a taboo in another society.

<h3>Factors That influences what may be seen as Taboo</h3>

  • Culture
  • Tribe
  • Ethnicity
  • Religion
  • Age

For instance, some culture in India prohibit the consumption of beef for religious reasons. Other cultures in America do not see anything wrong in the consumption of beef.

aivan3 [116]
They were all afraid. They had more and more weapons but were more and more afraid because they knew that if any of them attacked, the others would retaliate and that monstrosities would be committed.
