What social taboos that exist today do you think will not be around in 100 years?

I was reading a book on social life of the upper-middle class and new rich of the American 1920s and realized so many things we now do proudly were considered socially taboo back then. This was especially the case for clothing, makeup, women in certain public spaces, etc. What do you think will be different in the 2120s? Or maybe even the next 50 years?

Manners (i.e. respect for others) will gradually disappear until we are farting in each other's faces.

You obviously don't get out much. >90% of people have perfectly fine manners and respect in the real world, it only the terminally online who would think this. Or boomers I guess.

Farting will steadily increase until it reaches its theoretical maximum in 2123

Farting will increase until morale improves.
