That was my thought. As a man, I find it's men that passed to me a sense of what is taboo and what is ok (at least when I was a boy; perhaps less so now)

Maybe because women do the bulk of child care and teaching? They are in a good position to transmit norms, not sure about creating them though.

Depends on the taboo, I suppose. Seems to me that what are today considered to be righteous efforts to dispel constraining norms are just new norms in themselves, and in some cases just the same norms turned on themselves. But yes, mostly female-driven.

Probably because it's true. Lots of data on this actually, just doesn't get talked about

I'd be super interested in the data!

women put a lot more thought into other people - it makes sense they develop and distribute norms/taboos

For some reason I read this as tattoos, not taboos.

that’s my take here in LA too. guys seem to conform to a standard window of acceptable opinions, defined by women, to remain “dateable” or non-toxic or whatever. i don’t think this is true everywhere though

Read the anthropologist Sherry Ortner on women and nature/culture distinction.
