i just answered a question on nose picking in the car. Going by the answers there that seems to be the kind of tabboo i was thinking off.

peadophilia, incest, rape ... they are only tabboos for the victims. by treating it as a tabboo it serves the perpetrators advantageously as i see it. They are crimes. Having seen dogs having u good time up a leg, lamppost or tree i see bestiality as a circumstantial thing. Yuk! Peadophilia, incest and rape can never be circumstantial to me.

The biggest taboo of the early 21st century is a caucasian having an opinion about non-caucasians that collides with the popular inclination to say only great, nice, perfect things about non-caucasians or otherwise you're a "racist."

Real tabboos are underground and will not be talked about.

They are so far off what you think are tabboos today that it'll shock us all...probably.

Sex wth animals... although maybe that will be the norm in the future, as apes are already advancing beyond the intelligence of your average saturday-night party-goer.

Arguing that certain races are genetically different from the rest of us (lower IQ, better at sport, more musical, etc). Whether true or not, it's just not done.

to speak the truth seems to be taboo at the present time.
everyone is afraid to say who the enemy is for fear of the middle class political correctness.
we are being sterilised, and made useless
by an insidious underground of liberalism.
