Also known as tabu

A taboo is a social group's ban, prohibition or avoidance of something (usually an utterance or behavior) based on the group's sense that it is excessively repulsive, offensive, sacred or allowed only for certain people. Such prohibitions are present in virtually all societies. Taboos may be prohibited explicitly, for example within a legal system or religion, or implicitly, for example by social norms or conventions followed by a particular culture or organization.

AI overview

A taboo is a social prohibition against certain words, behaviors, or actions that a group considers deeply offensive, repulsive, or sacred—often restricted to specific people or circumstances. Taboos exist in all societies and are enforced either through formal rules like laws and religious codes or informal methods like cultural customs and social expectations.
