When friends make an exception from a normally “friendly relationship” to a “friends with benefits” like relationship for a limited period of time. They both consent that it will only last for that period of time, and afterwards they go back to being normal friends.

A loophole in da generally-accepted social rule which states dat you hafta keep yer paws off a buxom gal's "merchandise" less'n ya get her permission beforehand --- da theory in dis case is dat if she has a majority of her plump juicy "milk-thingies" juss hangin' right out there all luscious and "obvious", she is implying dat she is largely "tossing social norms out da window", and so you can go ahead and gleefully "squeeze theeze" without having to ask her first.
I'm guessing dat da brainless lunkhead in da classic "PAT"-labeled-uniform cartoon (da bosomy chick who's wearing da name-imprinted t-shirt is named "Patricia", but da clueless dude thought dat da word meant dat he had permission to feel her up) who got KO'd by da brawny babe was thinking of da "plain view" exception when he decided to delightedly "savor da goods" with his huge clumsy hands... da guy's buddy is saying to him, "I think it's meant for identification purposes, not as a set of instructions" :P

The act of nurturing within you and others the belief that you are exceptional and all others are inferior. Entire political strategies have been built on this concept, for instance, Trumpism. Trumpism is the firm belief that adherents are superior in thought and deed to opponents, especially ones of color and minority status. You aren't born with this abhorrent belief, it has to be nurtured either by you or with your consent. The irony is that people who hold firmly to a belief in nurtured exceptionalism are by definition unexceptional as human beings.
The Proud Boys created a platform of nurtured exceptionalism, using the power of social media to propagate a cancel culture to target minorities and those with beliefs opposed to theirs.
