    pressure can only be applied in the individual case. There is no broader cultural pressure that can exist without manifesting in individual cases

      General pressure will apply pressure to individual cases I guess but? I disagree that pressure can only be applied in the individual cases.

        general pressure is a product of pressure in individual cases just as the individual cases are a product of the general pressure.

        You cannot have a cultural taboo that is never enforced. For example wearing shoes indoors this would not be a taboo if no one ever told anyone off about it
