taboo

Taboo was originally a negative preventive measure taken by the ancients out of awe of the concept of supernatural power. It once played the same role as law in ancient social life. Today, with the elimination of the mystery of taboo things, many taboos have gradually disappeared, but there are still many taboos left over, affecting people's lives.
