The difficulties that women working in NTO encounter are described and discussed in this paper. Community norms, unwritten stereotypical views heard and learned through socialisation, family and parental values all pass on socio-cultural taboos to subsequent generations. These taboos may lead to the rejection of decision-making, or they may shoulder the burden of these taboos while employed by NTO. This paper presents the respondent's viewpoint on societal taboos, the expectations they have for society's treatment of them, and strategies for breaking down these barriers. Additionally, the idealised, conventional, and conventionally modern images of women that are created by social media could become taboo in certain circles. Keywords: Social taboos, cultural taboos, decision making, challenge, women, Non- Traditional Occupation.
