I stand by my statement.

While it is not acceptable or 'right' for western women to wear plate lips or engage in other body modification it is perfectly normal and expected in other cultures.

This is not to say that the cultures are 'equal'.

Well, If I were a Muslim, rape, suicide bombings, and lying might be perfectly acceptable. Since, I am not a Muslim, those things are not acceptable. A Muslim and I are of different cultures. And, our thoughts on this are different. That makes the whole discussion one of relativity, does it not?
