What is the generation gap today?

My mum - mid 70s, Yorkshire born and bred - is like many of her generation mildly racist, doesn't think homosexuality is acceptable or that gay couples should be allowed to adopt, IVF is flaunting nature, premarital sex is the only thing that separates us from animals... and so on. She is actually a very lovely and kind person who would never be rude to anybody, but she used to occasionally come out with some of this stuff.
She has now learned not to say anything like this in front of me cause I won't tolerate it.
So - my question is what beliefs do I hold that will make my DD17 frustrated with me? What dinosaur ideas does a woman my age have that will make my DD tell me to shut up and stop being so bloody ignorant?

Good evening Mumsnetters
Just a reminder of our talk guidelines which list as ageism as one of the things we don't allow.
Also a link to the GNHQ
Every day ageism campaign

Thanks ever so
