20. I'm a vegetarian, FWIW. "Part of their culture" is not an acceptable excuse for cruelty.

FGM is "culture".

Should Scandinavian countries be allowed to rape and pillage during non-growing seasons because it's "part of their traditional culture"?

If they are eating Big Macs at their local McDonald's then, no, it's not "part of their culture."

It's just an excuse for cruelty.
