Socially forbidden (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

taboo

'socially forbidden' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for taboo that I've seen before include "Strictly forbidden" , "Ritually forbidden" , "Socially prohibited" , "ruled out" , "(Irrational) prohibition" .)

I've seen this clue in the USA Today and The Times.
