However, I suspected that “in our culture” may have been a throwaway, rather than the focus of the poll. Probably because it didn’t say something like “American culture” or “Mormon culture,” for example.

Reading Future_Tacos’s response, it turns out my suspicion was correct.

So, did readers interpret the poll as being about people in general, or about people “in our culture?” If the latter, then which culture?

It just calls into question the meaning of the poll results.

You could do a poll about people in general or a poll about people of a particular culture. The results of both would be interesting.

No big deal— just academic.
