* ''Anime/KazeNoShojoEmily'' is set in [[AmbiguousTimePeriod 1900s-something Canada]]. Aunt Elizabeth doesn't like that Emily is a writer and many of her criticisms fall into straight sexism, like saying Emily should take up textile work instead and refrain from partaking in "unladylike" sports. The unladylike sport in question, you may ask? Ice skating.

** Anamaria's gender makes Gibbs wary of bringing her on the ship because of the belief that women bring bad luck, but eventually relents.

The fact that no one even considers it worth mentioning that she's black is also accurate, since pirates loved stealing slave vessels (they had a lot of room), and would happily take on competent sailors regardless of skin colour.

On the more dietary side of this, the Mars-born protagonists are weirded out when they're offered flounder for dinner after arriving on Earth for the first time; Mars has no indigenous ecosystem and the locals--the lower-classes, at least, which all of Tekkaden belong to--are basically all vegetarians by necessity rather than it being a deliberate lifestyle choice.

* A case of in universe ValuesDissonance shows up in Volume 11 of ''ComicBook/{{Saga}}''. Alana tries doing a "secret book club" reading with her daughter Hazel and adopted son Squire, reading them her favorite work by Oswald Heist. Heist is an author who secretly snuck anti-war messages into his books, anti-war messages which helped turn both Alana and her husband Marko against the war ripping apart the galaxy, and one of the first things that Marko and Alana bonded over were his books. The kids don't pick up on the subtext and are angry and aghast at one point when the word "retarded" is used, which wasn't considered a slur in previous generations but is for them, and worse still, it has been hurled at Squire because he went mute for years following [[spoiler:the murder of his father]], so the term hits hard for them. It's pretty clear Alana doesn't get why it's such a big deal to them and they react so strongly to it until Hazel points out the way it's been used against Squire as the two are storming away.

* ''Fanfic/LittleHandsBigAttitude'': Since many characters are aliens from different cultures, this comes up a lot.
** Diapers are not a thing in Mobian culture because the parents will carry the young to the yard when they have to go. This also implies that every Mobian house has a yard, which is unthinkable (and impossible) on Earth.
** Knuckles believes that one of the first gifts a newborn receives must be a family heirloom from an older member. None of the other characters has such a concept.
** [[spoiler:Silver and Blaze]], who come from a world that's been [[ApocalypseHow burned to ash]], think that the trash are supplies that the generous people leave out for the less fortunate.

* ''WesternAnimation/KingOfTheHill'' at times ran on this, as the show was about an old-fashioned conservative family adjusting to a changing world in the TurnOfTheMillennium. One example in particular would be the episode "Revenge of the Lutefisk" in which everyone in Hank's community is skeptical about a new female minister (as Abrahamic religion teaches that men and women have different but complementary roles and responsibilities in society), but warm up to her quickly upon realizing they share common ground like enjoying sports. When she says that female church leaders typically don't last long down South, [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Hank thinks she means because of the temperature]].

* A case of in universe ValuesDissonance shows up in Volume 11 of ''ComicBook/{{Saga}}''. Alana tries doing a "secret book club" reading with her daughter Hazel and adopted son Squire, reading them her favorite work by Oswald Heist.
