Jane Greene Ryan's Pers X

Thread: DB1- Cultural ToleranceTwo women sit and enjoy a leisurely afternoon together. One of them is reading the newspaper and becomes horrified upon encountering an article that describes procedures such as clitorectomies and labial sewing performed on females as young as seven years old. The article describes these procedures as "female genital mutilation" and explains that they may be completed without anesthesia and by non-medical professionals. The woman is further disturbed by the fact that these procedures, traditionally practiced in certain cultures in Africa and Asia, have recently been reported to have occurred in the United States. The second woman responds that they must withhold judgment on the practices described in the article because every culture has the right to their own practices and beliefs and others are unable to judge these practices.The two differing viewpoints espoused in the above scenario can both find support for their opinions in various ethical theories and principles. The second woman, who focuses on the rights of others to their own beliefs and practices, relies most heavily on the theory of ethical relativism, which posits that ethics are not universal and can be different in individuals and societies. Furthermore, both subtypes of ethical relativism will support the second woman's view as well. First, she would argue that there are no objective moral truths and that those who practice female cutting are entitled to their own opinion. Second, she subscribes to the theory of cultural relativism, in which evaluating any moral question must consider the beliefs of the particular culture in question (Butts & Rich, 2020). It follows from the theory of ethical relativism that the cultures that practice female circumcision should be allowed to do so without judgment.In addition, the second woman utilizes the ethical principle of moral imagination, which requires one to reflect on another's attitudes and values before coming to a moral conclusion (Butts & Rich, 2020). Regardless of her own cultural beliefs toward female genital modification, she is able to use moral imagination to explore alternate cultural beliefs on this issue and is cognizant that she should not judge without understanding a different custom and practice.Using these ethical theories and principles, this woman can research the subject of female genital cutting and discover that presenting this practice as mutilation of genitalia may be due to a lack of moral imagination and ignoring of cultural relativism. Many supporters of this practice believe that the use of the word “mutilation” is in fact a distortion of both the purpose and the actual procedures. For example, some procedures that fall under the category of female genital mutilation are purely cosmetic and do not have an impact on morphology or function. Using the word “mutilation" denies the opportunity to explore cultural differences to approach an ethical issue, since no conscientious medical professional would willingly mutilate a patient (Trahair, 2020). Moreover, she may acknowledge that female genital cutting is a religious ceremony and while foreign to her, is practiced by many Muslim communities around the world and she would not fully understand its significance without an in-depth study of Islamic practices (Duivenbode & Padela, 2019).On the other hand, the first woman in the scenario is informed by the theory of ethical objectivism.
