There is a popular saying that goes like this: "What is unacceptable and bad in a group of people may
be good and acceptable in another group of people." Oftentimes, we are quick in judging certain aspects of the
culture of other people as "immoral" or "uncivilized" without being aware of the fact that others may judge us
also in a similar manner. This is because there is always a tendency on our part to look at the ways and
manners of other groups from our own perspective or point of view, making our own ways as the measuring
stick.
