People Are Sharing Things That Shouldn’t Be Socially Acceptable In 2022, And Some Are Controversial
We all live in a world governed by rules, common sense and socially acceptable norms. The latter ones refer to things that are generally viewed by the members of our society as being appropriate to engage in.
Although societal norms often vary from culture to culture, that doesn’t mean some of the generally accepted things are not to be questioned. With times changing, some of them feel outdated or raise more questions than they have answers.
This illuminating thread asked people to weigh in and list the things that are “socially acceptable but you can’t help but think ‘why?’” Below are some of the most illuminating responses, so scroll down!

Beauty pageants for children.
I doubt that anyone outside of the US thinks this is anything but creepy
“Being within a community, we are relatively conformist,” Dr Audrey Tang, a chartered psychologist and author of multiple books, including "Be A Great Manager Now," "The Leader's Guide to Mindfulness," and "The Leader's Guide to Resilience” told Bored Panda in an interview.
According to Dr Tang, this is nothing new and much of this collective approach can be traced back to the dawn of civilization. She calls it “a hangover from our past as a collective.” Dr Tang explained: “It was safer for the community to sleep at the same time because it meant that no one was sneaking into your cave to steal your stuff.”
Rich megachurch pastors.
“Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break in or steal; for where your treasure is, there your heart will be also." - Matthew 6:19-21
Abuse towards men, it’s still laughed at when a man says it happened to him.
Texting while driving doesn’t get enough hate.
they can't walk and text without tripping or hitting a pole, yet think they can drive and text
Moreover, we have a fundamental drive to be part of a group. “We have always been safer together, and inclusion – even if you are near the bottom of the pack – still means you are part of something bigger.”
Dr Tang argues that "social norms" are the cultures, behaviors and expectations which make up society. “They can differ from community to community, but in many ways, adherence allows us to know where we fit within our group.”
She continued: “When we live in a society with others (and this is evident in the animal kingdom), we tend to understand our ‘place’ in the pack through acknowledging ourselves in comparison to others – with the goal being access to resources. In humans, we are fighting less over a perceived scarcity of food and water, but (especially in the social media world) a need for acknowledgment and validation.”
Pockets in female clothing… I am a male. My daughters cannot understand why there is fake pockets in all womenswear.
THIS! This everytime annoyes the fûck out of me! This can literally ruin any shopping experience. So thank god for internet shopping and filter functions. I completely stopped to buy brands/designs that doesn't allow women to have pockets or only provide pixie-pockets that are smaller than the one in a toddler's sweat pants.
Gender reveals.
Man, this is annoying. It's interesting only for you and eventually the grandparents but the joy would be the same also by telling them over the phone, over dinner etc. Seriously, nobody cares.
Dr Tang also claims that building self-esteem has focused on appreciating the self but often in comparison to others “(e.g. I didn’t win… but at least I didn’t come last).” She added that “While in many ways this was more important historically where there was more of a 'fight' for resources, the 'competition' has now moved to social media and 'likes' - and as such this may now also play a huge part in what is acceptable.”
Working while sick.
This expectation needs to stop. Being expected to work while sick doesn't make a good employee, it makes a bad employer. That's saying nothing of how this expectation leads to the rest of the employees getting sick too. There was a reason everyone at my previous job called the place the petri dish, if one person got sick literally everyone else would too because you either worked or went to the unemployment line.
People asking couples when are they going to make baby.
I embarrass them by saying something like "oh so you are thinking of us having sex, hu? You weirdo!" Freaks them out enough to stop talking about it. Then if they get persistent I say I hate kids, even though I really don't.
People listening to loud music on their phone in public transports without headphone.
Dr Tang argues that we often feel fear of judgment because of a tendency to live our life according to a series of ‘shoulds.’Although if you ask anyone, they are likely not to be able to tell you where their rules came from.
“For example, who said that ‘women should be caring and nurturing?’; who said that ‘men shouldn’t cry?’ Who said that we should/shouldn’t be a certain weight/size/shape, etc.” Dr Tang added: “and more importantly, is anyone still saying it?!”
Bullying people for not drinking alcohol in social situations
Assuming a childfree woman in the family will babysit your kid whenever you want to go out.
Unpaid internship for students.
A poor student can't afford the costs that go along with the internship.
Unpaid internships are meant to teach the student but many companies take advantage and make them do work for free. It's actually illegal to have your intern do any work that contributes to the income or business services, that's why they get coffee in many movies and pop culture. People need to know their rights as an intern and report companies that take advantage and have their intern making the company money.
Nonetheless, it is often easier to simply conform. “And there results an unconscious lesson – shout long enough and loud enough and people may go along with you to shut you up.”Moreover, a lot of our beliefs are imposed unconsciously through the stories we watch in the media, in our culture, in our families and in our overall experience, Dr Tang argues.
Those baby/children’s clothes with sayings like “future heartbreaker” or “does this shirt make me look fat?” Why?
I never allowed my kids to dress beyond their years or my daughter in inappropriate clothing. I never understood parents who put their 5 year old daughters in daisy dukes and half shirts. Or any kind of clothing like it.
Asking a women when she is going to marry and why doesn't she have a boyfriend.
Asking a couple when they are going to have kids. There are a lot of couples that can't get pregnant and asking that is like rubbing the wound with salt
When I was single and was asked why I didn't have a boyfriend I told them I had a shower head I didn't need one
“Sometimes, especially when we have so much going on, we don’t have time to stop and think – we don’t always appreciate that some of our beliefs about what we ‘should/shouldn’t’ do are not necessarily healthy.” One thing we can do is ask ourselves, Dr Tang suggests, “How would I feel if I didn’t have that thought (i.e. about the other person judging me)?” and then behave accordingly.
Using speakerphone in public places.
Or having loud (should be private) conversations in public like everyone wants to hear.
I was just waiting at the social security office and EVERYONE in there overheard this woman helping this man, I’m assuming her man?, fill out his paperwork. She was shouting questions like “do you have any mental disabilities?” “Do you take medication?” Lady, no one thinks that’s cool.
Don't assume people are just rude. If I get a call, I have to put it on speaker because I am hard of hearing.
Isn't it a lot harder to listen to speaker phone than ear buds in a public space?

Add to this anyone, literally anyone who takes a bluetooth speaker out in public and blares their music out of it. Not socially acceptable so much, particularly when they're out in a nice countryside setting and you can't hear the tranquility over their shitty mixlist
Okay- THIS is truly rude. I have less problems with speakers on a phone - usually not that loud and sometimes interesting, even. But blasting loud music that is usually absolutely not my taste - so rude.

And thus why texting is a godsend... people complain 'Just PICK UP THE PHONE' and I'm like 'You can never hear what I'm saying and I can't hear what you're saying... but your SIGHT is fine... why can you not just text? You needed to tell me exactly one sentence of information!"
I may be the only person who isn't annoyed by this. I like listening in on other people's conersations. Mind you, the only time I ever encounter it is in stores, and it usually seems to be one person shopping for elderly relatives via video, so that the person at home can see what's available. I think it's sweet.
I love this! I used to video shop for my Yia Yia and she wou ld she would try and talk to people she could see in my background!"that looks like a nice single guy" ...." Let's go bump into him"!

I have a naturally loud voice. I have to keep reminding myself to lower my voice :(
God forbid people hear someone that isn't talking directly to them. So sad people are ashamed of how they're born. Eff them, you could rock Broadway

I don’t really have an issue with speakerphone, unless people are being really loud - after all, it’s just two people having a conversation in public, which is completely normal. Loud voices can be annoying but a lot of people are hard of hearing or struggle with background noise, so sometimes it’s necessary to raise your voice.
I talk with my grandma when I go for walk because only then I've enough time for a longer talk. I don't put her on speak and almlst always wear headphones but often I need to talk louder for her to be able to hear me. I don't do it in public transport, only on the street. Yet once in a while someone's rude only because I talk to my phone instead of a live person by my side - I don't make more noise than two people, let alone group, walking and talking. The only difference is that I'm on the phone.
Context matters with this because of the location. This happened at the SS building, not a movie theatre or a restaurant. The SS Office in general can be an extremely loud place at times. Not just the people who are going there, but, also the people working at the office have to be loud when speaking. Those who are at the local SS Office are either retired (which is elderly people who more than likely have hearing loss due to natural causes) or it is children/adults with either physical & mental disabilities or both such as Down Syndrome, ASD, Intellectual Disorder, Blind, Cerebral Palsy, Deaf, etc. This is one location that I would hope people would be understanding of someone that may be using their phone on speaker and talking loudly. This woman could’ve been the elderly wife to a man that is in such poor health he was not able to go to his local SS Office to apply for SS or SSDI so his wife who also has hearing problems is the one trying to get him the assistance that he needs.
A LOT of y'all need to remember that respecting your elders gives you a longer life. While I understand that it is Excessively annoying having to be privy to a private conversation. In some cases (for our ELDERS), we could grant them the patience and understanding that as you age, sometimes your hearing Isn't good, But your ears Are Sensitive, so sometimes headphones Aren't an option.... Or, you could consider how Karma and the Universe will look poorly upon your choice to treat people who deserve such a Small consideration poorly....
I still dont see the functional difference between this and two people having any sort of conversation in a public place. In either situation you can hear both of their voices, why is it such an issue when one of those voices is coming through a device?
Take a moment, stop, think, remember that hearing loss is as much of a spectrum type disorder as visual impairment. You can't use the same solution for every single type and even the solutions that work on a type won't work for everyone with that type. Some of what you folks are suggesting is incredibly rude as well as ignorant. Imagine any surgery you've had in your life, that's how much hearing aids or implant could cost if not even more. Some types don't even allow for the privacy of headphones and earbuds either. Everyone should learn to be more tolerable even if it's annoying, but it's not going to kill you it's just inconvenient and it will pass. We all need to remember and think about this.
Maybe the man was hard of hearing and she needed to be loud for him to hear? Things happen. Maybe if people studied ASL in school instead of German, things would be different (since ANYONE can go deaf, not everyone will travel).
I'm gobsmacked at some of this. I wear hearing aids. All I can say re earbuds hurt you is aw, diddums. I hope you don't go deaf someday and NEED stuff stuck in both ears all your waking hours. 🙄
That person was there for dissability and the loud person was his aide. You are very ablest. It's a social security office, how dare you. Use your head before you judge and have compassion when in a social security office. That person was disabled and needed help and likely has crippeling auditory developmental problems you cannot fathom and is there because they cannot function enough to support themselves and needs finantial assistance to survive and here you are being impatient and acting annoyed like an a*****e. Read the f*****g room next time.
Dang.. There are a LOT of presumptive a**holes on this one. 1. My phone case is waterproof and muffles both speakers. 2. No earbuds will fit my ears. 3. A headset kept on hand would be destroyed within a week on my job. 4. The loudspeaker is significantly clearer but quieter than normal speaking. 5. I'm strongly tone-deaf but not at all deaf. I have a larger range of hearing than most but can't differentiate tones. Hearing aids can't help here. My only choice is speaker.
Who's forcing you? Put in earbuds if you don't want to hear the world around you. Other people shouldn't have to appease you by not making noises you don't feel like hearing. You can block out the sounds yourself. You just wanna be an entitled b***h and control people around you

I just mentioned this in the comments for the loud music without headphones post 🤣
Especially in a public washroom !! What the hell is wrong with you!?!! I feel sorry for the person on the other end that has to listen to that
I rmember being on the bus when a young man at the back was on his mobile, talking to a friend about s*x and about how his girlfriend wants a certain thing done and he won't do that and blah blah blah. Everyone was looking super uncomfortable. He ends the call, and I lean over and say, "Dude, you're going to want to rethink your position on that matter because if you expect it from her.... well..." Kid looked so embarrassed!
The worst one is the hands free through the radio it's so loud and you can guarantee the person on the other end has no idea they're talking to an entire car park full of people
This isn't socially acceptable... people are just too polite or don't want the hassle of telling the other person.
Why bother when they can just run to the Internet to spew all the garbage they don't have the courage to say in person?

Hate people at grocery stores or other public stores who talk on there speaker phone. Don't be that person near me I have no shame to say nice and loud "So where did you find that dildo and butt plug at?" The looks I get as they walk away and the person there talking to says "I though you are at the store?" So much fun!
He probably just needed help filling out the form. Don't be a jerk for f saks
Um…talking on the phone while in a bathroom stall where there are other people ‘doing their business’. In a public restroom or a workplace restroom - oh heck no - that’s not right!
What's with that??? So many people walking up-and-down the aisle in stores on a video call with the speaker on loud and having a lengthy conversation there? Not just customers but staff... when you're trying to find a sales person they're too busy on a personal call. I see a lot of comments talking about hard-of-hearing people I make allowances for them... but you're in a store in public with the volume cranked up on the speaker and you're yelling into the phone back...
Yikes. That person was probably helping someone who can't read or something.
This was much worse when cellphones were a novelty. My goodness, I worked in the SF Gulch during the DOT COM years and you wouldn’t believe how many tools went around shouting in their phones back then.
This just happened to me yesterday.... I went into a gas station and there was 1 woman ahead of me in line at the counter and she was talking loudly on speaker to her friend about her other "fat friend" (so sad). She was so busy with her conversation she kept screwing up when trying to use the debit pin pad, even though the employee was trying to point it out to her, but she wasn't paying any attention since she was on her phone. After 3 tries he finally yanked the card out of her hand and did it for her...
That's actually rude, chatting at checkout and holding up everyone else.

Driving after drinking at all. You are operating a 2-ton murder mobile. Please give the road your full attention.
How we have become so okay with so much consumption just for the sake of it.
Black Friday deals, "sales", new phone upgrades every year. It's all so weird.
Also working for 80000hrs of our lives is pretty weird too.
In 2008, there was an enormous queue of people outside a branch of Walmart for Black Friday. When the security guard unlocked the door to let everyone in, they barged through the doors and he died due to the stampede. People were literally running and stomping on his dead body. That's utter insanity. Such an extreme and scary case of "pack" behaviour.
When we are at odds with others, it is common to feel guilt. “Related to this is our self-esteem – which (unlike self compassion) is developed in comparison to others – if we see we are doing better, we feel better about ourselves.”
Dr Tang explained that “when we hear differing opinions, yes, the opinion itself may make us angry, but it causes us to question our own foundations, and unconsciously, our position in our own world… if someone else is different… could they end up being more 'powerful' (or at least get more access to the resources I want)?”
Saying that your child is going to break so many hearts when they are older or saying to the mother to "save him for me" as a joke.
Just sexualising children in anyway especially when they are far too young to understand and begin to learn that its ok to grab a womans tits because when you did it your parents laughed and encouraged you when you were younger.
Its gross.
Also, a woman can do this and get away with it. If a man does it, he could end up in the back seat of a police car or get beat up by whoever happens to hear him.
Off leash badly trained dogs in public parks where others are trying to enjoy a picnic.
Honking your horn while in traffic. What do you want me to do, drive through the cars blocking the road? These people are morons.
Maybe they think they have a magic horn that when you honk it, it will make the obstacle ahead disappear!
What’s unfortunate, according to Dr Tang, is the common behavior, rather than to show acceptance of difference, to try to negate that of the other. “It is the act of ‘normative idealization’ – what I do is normal, what you do is odd (it makes our own ego feel better); or we might alternatively just be picking on others to avoid thinking about our own problems – and something which makes them 'different' is an easy target.”
Sometimes it means by bringing someone down (rather than working to raise ourselves up), we feel better about ourselves, Dr Tang explained, and don’t need to admit we need to do something about our own insecurities.
Telling a young person that they’ll change their mind eventually when they say they have no interest in ever getting married.
Also telling someone they’ll want kids eventually even if they’re adamant about never having kids.
Case in point, I would very much prefer to have two cats that I can love and pamper and cuddle with than a husband or wife.
I refuse to give birth, I refuse to be pregnant, if it ever happens, I am getting an abortion. If I ever have kids, it’ll be through foster or adoption and it’ll only happen if I become moderately wealthy and can give those kids a good life, if not? My cats will be close enough to kids anyway.
Full grown adults dating barely "legal" teens.
Eh.... It depends on the situation... 48 year old person who has been "waiting" for the teen's 18th birthday, starts RIGHT in on them on that day - because hey, now it's legal! ... still gives me pause. 23 year old dating a 19 year old? Meh. Normal.
Kids having social media accounts
Depends on the social media, are you letting them watch some fun YouTube videos, talk to their friends on discord, or is it Snapchat and Instagram. Not all are blanketly bad, bur most of the image sharing ones are
People smashing other people's face into cake when it's their birthday, or when newly weds are sharing a cake and they smear the cake onto their SO's face in the ceremony. Just, why? Not everyone thinks it's a fun, quirky thing to do, it ruins whatever makeup they're using, and most of the time I see it, the people with cake on their face gets pretty mad over it, and I think they're justified
Untrained 'emotional support' animals. I’m all for service animals, but some people abuse the concept and just make sh*t up.
Touching pregnant people's stomachs.
If I ever become pregnant and some rando decides that they can just start rubbing my stomach without asking then you bet I'm gonna be rubbing their stomach back
Aaaand also... nobody dare to rub your SO's crotch, like "Good job,mate !"
Being on your phone when having a conversation.
Working 40+ hours a week for someone else for most of your adult life only to maybe get 10 years to enjoy life when you may be too old to enjoy it anymore
Whatever "dream" job we might imagine, it will never be wonderful all of the time. Clearly there are many people in the world without the means or options to choose their work, but there are many who can choose. By making the best choice and making the best of that choice, it is then a matter of attitude and perspective to enjoy the best parts and make it through the worst.
Not wearing a seatbelt. BACKSEAT TOO.
Let me tell you a story.
We had a girl in our house, basically a medical foster placement. Your typical 4-5 yo before her ‘incident’.
Her family was going somewhere together, mom and grandma (I think) and they strapped her into the kid seat. But didn’t strap the kid seat into the seat of the car. Head on collision, and this little girl (+kid seat)is sent *through* the dash board. Can’t walk, talk, feed herself, be a 5 yo. Had a chunk of her skull smashed to bits, repaired, removed again because of an infection, and a plate added.
Ffs people. Wear your damn seatbelts. You become a potential projectile for the other people in the car too. No one is safe.
Going to get crucified for this but getting drunk.
I don't have a problem with drinking alcohol but the way people talk about how drunk they got with immense pride always baffled me.
Also the fact that it's completely legal along with cigarettes when other things aren't is moronic.
This is a culture where I live. If you don't go out every weekend and get drunk, you're seen as socially inept by your colleagues. Personally I'd rather spend a whole bunch of money on something that gives me pleasure and is tangible, rather than something I'm going to pee out or throw up copiously while feeling like death warmed up
Customer entitlement in retail. Returns culture. Posting bad reviews before trying to understand what actually went wrong when it comes to meeting their expectations.
This is mostly, and sadly, an American thing. It's because, for some dumb reason we have encouraged the phrase"the customer is always right". Which has led to entitled a*s customers who can never, ever, be wrong no matter how horrible or wrong they are. It's honestly our own fault.
Being viewed as a failure if you don’t enter into a relationship, get married and/or have kids.
I feel this. Every year of my life, I got straight A's and A+'s with almost no fail, am working on computer programming, never got glued to devices, won a lot of school awards...yet my parents still sorta hate me and threaten to disown me cause I'm NB and never want kids. Did I do that for nothing bruh 😭
Giving up so much private data to companies without the option not to.
I understand how shitty that is but it really is the main reason most of the internet is free. Imagine if you had to pay for every website you visit
Oversharing everything and everywhere your kids or babies are. Like putting full names, tagging their school/frequented play areas, interests, etc. Friends and family ain’t the only people looking at this stuff.
The good way for predators and pedophiles to find out more about your children and possibly abduct them.
Taking pictures of strangers without permission when the context isn’t justified, especially covertly (bonus points if the person does it for the purposes of sharing/posting it). Am I the only one that thinks it is weird and creepy?
It’s even worse when people mention that this is a problem and others then start justifying it. I’ve seen so many comments where people start preaching about “if you’re in a public space you’ll have to accept blah, blah, blah, if you don’t like it stay at home, blah, blah…” Why on earth would you defend something like this?
grabbing people’s wheelchairs and pushing them without being asked or asking consent. pushing people around is rude as f**k and bullying behaviour, but if someone is on wheels suddenly it’s fine? no. don’t touch the chair
Strangers touching all over babies. Pinching cheeks, picking them up and kissing them. I’ve had people come up to me at a store and open up her car seat cover to see her. And I’ve had people that know my mom (strangers to me) come up and kiss her and pinch her cheeks and pass her around when she was just a little infant. None of them cleaning their hands either. I enjoy seeing people that I know holding and loving on my child but at least ask especially if you are a stranger.
Plus the constant need to overstimulate them. Had this at work, colleague brings in her new baby who is lying in its pram, totally calm and just peacefully looking around, enjoying being chill, when another colleague comes along and has to start tickling and groping the baby, making loads of silly noises and daft exaggerated faces. Why??? The poor mite was just totally happy and chill and now they’re all wound up and have been needlessly disturbed from their rest.
Family YouTube channels, honestly they start really sweet and all but it progressively gets worse when money gets involved.

This is for Americans...having to drain your bank account to pay for medications so you can stay alive.

I've got one: Street preachers who holler through bullhorns at the general public about how they're going to Hell while ignoring the needy all around them. Judge not lest ye be judged.
Shaming parents and guardians, especially moms, telling strangers, "No, don't touch my child", or, "Get away from us." I know society is getting better, but stop judging, looking down, or commenting how a parent is over reacting over nothing. It's not nothing, it's called a boundary.
"Socially acceptable" varies widely within a single culture, let alone across them, so let's just stop with the idea that there's any One Right Way beyond "do unto others as you'd be done unto".
