moral relativism?
Maybe I misinterpreted/don't remember what Naa said, but I thought she meant that we (Americans) are being selfish in wanting to conserve whales because they are not part of our culture so of course it won't affect us if we want to place more stringent laws on whaling, and that we should recognize that eating whale is integral to other cultures before we make international laws based on our non-whale-eating perspective. And therefore Naa does not support whale conservation laws (Naa, correct me if I'm wrong!). But what confused me is when she brought up female genital mutilation. If we should respect other cultures and allow whaling to continue, then shouldn't we respect other cultures and allow female genital mutilation to continue? I'm not saying I'm in favor of female genital mutilation, I'm just wondering what makes humans more special than whales. A policy of moral relativism that applies to whaling should apply to other concerns.
