Dear Always,
No! No. No, no. And a thousand times No! A Mitvah toward another individual is specific to that person’s needs. Physical or emotional. It can be objective that they need it. But even without that qualifier your a thousand miles off. It has simply nothing to do with standard norms (which are always subjective).
I don’t know for sure what you intended by “Torah allows for social pressures”, but if your way of treating others is based on the local, social, norms, your likely hurting many people.
