Do you think your respostas are partly based on where you come from

when i was answering the pergunta about wheither it was ok to b in amor with ur siblings, i said that in another country that could be a usual thing so it'd seem ok, is the reason alot of ppl where disgusted por that pergunta was because they where raised in a place where they dont do that and its thought of as disgusting?

That's a good pergunta :)

Well....I don't really think so. I mean, I'm aware that there are things in other countries that the United States (my country) may see as taboo or things we have we may see as perfectly okay, but the opposite to other countries. But when it comes to subjects here, they usually come from my own mind, not my location.

Now that I think of it, there was a time where I called being born out of wedlock abnormal. But a girl disagreed with this. When I explained that there were only four students (including myself) who were born out of wedlock in my entire school, she said that it wasn't the same way an England. So I guess that could be an example.

I think in somethings it probably does. How you grow up affects you a lot when you get older.

Yes. The politics, 'values', religion, and how someone is treated throughout their life shapes their outlook on things.

Of course. Let's use Norwegians and Somalians as an example (in general). We think that women have rights, that they should be treated with just as much respect as men. They, however, think that a women is below a man, and therefore, they can treat them like animals.

Two different opinions from two different societies.

Yes. The environment a person grows up in greatly affects there opinion.

For example, a person from the American 'Bible Belt' is mais likely to give religious, conservative respostas than a person from, say, New York or California.

Yes, unconciously. If you mean your heritage and the standards of your heritage, then yes. Your heritage and the way your parents raised you have a lifelong effect on your decisions and answers. It's what makes you biased because it has a rather large effect on your judgements.

i think it is mostly on where you were raised and how you were raised because you get taught different things in different households. so yes it is partly based on where you come from and who you're around

Oh, absolutely.

Everyone's ideas about these things always comes from the people they grow up around. My parents, for example, are very liberal, so that gives me mais liberal values, while one of my best friends, Emma, her parents are very conservative, therefore she has very conservative values. The same is true for every person I know. If you were raised around people who were always stressing a certain set of values, the child is almost guaranteed to have those same values when they grow older.

I know that in some areas, some ideas are mais commonly accepted than others. For example, down in some southern states, they are far mais conservative, and their entire lives have a very conservative feel (my mum and brother were on tour around the country last year, and I went with them a lot of the time, so I've seen different areas). But up in some northern states, it is much mais liberal with a much mais liberal lifestyle (yes, they pose two different lifestyles. Similar, but they are most certainly different). It's human nature.

Yes.
They are my opinions, so naturally, I have no choice but to go on what my brain has to offer. :)
