As a homework, I have to describe the "Weltanschauung" of somebody, but I'm confused what exactly that means.

In When to use “Weltanschauung” vs. “Ideologie”? Do they basically have the same meaning?, @TomAu writes:

A literal translation of Weltanschauung is "world view." It is the prism ("spectacles" if you will) through which one views the world.

I agree with that - but still I'm unsure what that exactly means. (That implies, this question doesn't help me deciding which of the cited sentences below is part of "Weltanschauung")

Up to now, I thought that would not include a statement like: "He is disgusted by sexuality". Instead, "Weltanschauung" includes in my eyes: "In his point of view, sexuality is animal-like". Am I correct?
