The processes by which society establishes new norms, expectations, and standards, and in some cases existing norms and standards are replaced, in regards to what is and is not acceptable in religious settings.

Yuliana: I wish more religions would be more supportive of giving women equal rights and protections.
Winston: Regrettably that may take a while to occur, the amount of time in which religious normalization occurs in many religions is relatively slow. It could take many years for those types of changes to happen, but the process might be accelerated if more national governments gave women equal rights to men, which would help pressure them into doing it.
Yuliana: I just wish it would happen faster.
Winston: We can always hope that some day more religions will be more supportive of women’s right.
Yuliana: I agree. Hopefully some day more of them will.

An old, extensive series of social norms and expectations that indicate what types of behaviors and social practices are and are not acceptable in various social situations. A majority of the rules employed in the modern properness system come from medieval times and were first created in Europe. There are different rules for males and females, regarding how they are to treat each other and behave in each other’s presences; what gender an individual identifies as determines which gender type of rules they are expected to follow. Many of the rules are out of date with times and tend to be quite biased against the poor, women, LGBTQ people, people with disabilities and other species.
The properness etiquette system is in urgent need of reform in order to make it more up to date with the times, more effective, and less biased against various populations.

When people die as a result of not being able to acquire the resources they need to survive, because they lost a lot of money they needed when they paid off their taxes, which causes some people to go homeless and potentially die starvation, dehydration, and or severe illnesses that greatly impact their lives in a negative way.
People who get taxed to death tend to die in a very slow, painful manner. It is sad to see this issue is still very prevalent today.
