Societies indoctrinate all those that live within them - that's what social norms are.

Eww, no. Rational adults examine our social norms, ask why we have them, and challenge those that make no sense.

Then rational adults are the minority of adults.

Questioning deeply rooted social norms will get you thrown out of most social groups. Well, questioning social norms held by that group will generally get you thrown out. Questioning deeply held social norms of a different group that the group you're in doesn't like will get you elevated in status, but you aren't actually questioning that group's social norms.
