[Ranuccio Tomassoni's Ballsack]
Social norms are about as solid as water. They are constantly shifting, fluctuating, and evolving with the tide of politics and socioeconomic changes and technological advances and all these other factors that wrap around our species and alter our definition, each and every single day, of what it means to be a good, morally upstanding human. As a society, we simply cannot base anything as perpetually upstanding as the law by the standards set by social morals on any given days. Otherwise, judges and counsels and clerks would be drifting case to case like flyers in the wind, ungrounded and uncertain as to where they and their clients stand.
