So would you say the aversion to fecal matter and necrotic tissue is just cultural or memetic? I find that very hard to believe.
not at all: obviously heightened sensibilities can hitch a ride on real instincts. aversion to fecal matter is universal and instinctive. aversion to sharing a bottle of water, not so much.

totally right, there‘s a hygienic instinct. but the high germophobic sensitivity of many people in the west (what i took the op to be about) is a cultural matter.
