OK, I'll bite. What are those weird, ridiculous, or barbaric mores? Five simple examples:

1) Openness of sexual promiscuity (over here, we believe that if you have to do it, at least keep it private)

2) Lack of reverence for teachers

3) Lack of respect for elders

4) Putting old people in homes, and in general considering it OK to treat them like dirt, like a burden

5) Expecting children to be independent at the age of seventeen or eighteen

The second and fourth ones bother me quite a bit. They're unthinkable and abhorrent.
