No. All cultures are not equal.

In my Communications class, our teacher told us that ethnocentrism is bad because no ones' culture is superior to another.

Of course I was taken aback by such a statement.

There are things that cultures do that we would find immoral, slavery, persecution of homosexuals, etc.

All things equal, a culture that practices and/or supports things like those, is not equal to one that doesn't.

We are better than them.

We are only better because we resist our urges, so why do the other cultures survive? Why are women migrating away from the best culture?

Who is pussy blocking all the pussy in "woman-law"?

Of course hope is just a possible delusion, yet there is a case for Watson VR

Idk you! Never met you. If you're not in Keira Knightley's skin I probably wouldn't care to. If you were in Keira Knightley's skin and acted stupid I still would ask you to kindly bounce away from my humble/egocentric presence

Yeah. It’s blatantly obvious that not every culture is equal. Heck, Your teacher’s claim that ethnocentrism is bad contradicts their other claim that all cultures are equal.

I agree with you.

Funny how no one in the class challenged her on it.

I didn't, because I didn't want to start a big thing in class.

Perhaps my classmates felt the same.

What metric are you using? And as Jaden asks, who are us and them? As, the US isn't one culture from state to state even. Europe certainly isn't.

What is United States culture, out of curiosity? I've lived here all my life, and I'm not sure what we could really consider united States culture. Great melting pot indeed.

Tell me what you think of cultures who have an underclass in poverty for the hiring time?

What do you think of "black codes" for the most disadvantaged in many Southern states?

Way too specific.

I'm talking in general.

I see you edited your post Whirly.

I'm not familiar with "black codes."
