Are all cultures equal in terms of being right and wrong, good and bad? Do we have the right to proclaim one set of values to be better than another?

What a question right?! That was the question of the week. Thinking about this question of course i wanted to be bold and say that my culture is the best. Of course i want to say that the church of Jesus Christ of latter day saints is the only true culture but as i thought about it each person is different and believes in what they want to believe in. You have to be careful and accepting of what people choose to believe in. It made me realize we cannot judge people based on their culture.

This week made me really appreciate the options we have. I was able to talk about the adoption process i went thru with my family. My mother was not able to have many kids but thankfully was able to adopt two little girls to make our family grow. That experience is incredible. My sisters are amazing and our family would not be complete without them. My family is so great and i love them so much.

In class we were presented with this quote by G. Steinahm, "We badly need to raise our boys more like our girls." We talked about this and it really made me think what was meant by this quote. I do not agree with this quote. Even though studies show that most guys can learn from girls actions; I think that girls can easily learn from boys as well. I think there are things to be learned and taught by both sides. It was interesting to think about why someone would quote that.
