Yes - I don't like being asked, and will not answer, exposing questions about sexuality and gender.
I won't answer questions about what anatomy I do or don't have, what surgeries I have or have not had or intend to have, what I "really" am or how I was born, if I have been with more men or women, if I prefer men or women, etc.
With relatives I refuse to engage in the topic at all.

I am quite immature in some ways, including with respect to sexual matters. I still can't really bring myself to talk about such things. I also can't really talk to most people about ASD (even if not in relation to me), because I've been punished (by my parents) for talking about it enough that I have been taught to avoid the subject.

This may sound weird, but I get uncomfortable when people talk about LGBTIQ+ people/subjects. I am in no way homophobic - I somehow relate to LGBTIQ+ people, even though I don't really have any concept of my sexuality at all. I've never been attracted to anybody in that way. I can't really explain it.

I dislike talking about nail polish, hair dye, piercings, tattoos, and smoking. I have never done any (especially the latter) and I shall never do so. I believe they are a complete waste of time. Be happy with your natural nails, your natural hair colour (if you have hair), try to keep your skin intact, and we all know the risks of smoking. I will not be disgusted at people who do this stuff though (I'd be disgusted at probably 60% of people if I was). Yet if a little girl were to ask me, "Should I get an ear piercing?" I would explain my view to her.

I don't have any taboos. I'm quite comfortable to talk about anything really.
