    What lines do you think still exist?

clearly there are still many, many lines.... but none that I've seen that are agreed upon widely as a "culture norm" in the US. You could argue that sexism, racism, homophobia are alive and well.... because they are... but there is growing consensus that those things aren't ok. In fact - those things are becoming the fringe... maybe (hopefully).

    Do you think the reduction of our boundaries is a positive?

I don't think I can pass that judgement. We all construct our belief systems and try to live accordingly. The way we set our boundaries may be different, but we should only set the boundaries for ourselves.
