The document discusses female genital mutilation (FGM) and debates whether it can be justified through ethical relativism. FGM involves removing parts of the external female genitalia and is practiced in some cultures. However, opponents argue that FGM is a harmful practice that violates women's health and rights. While some see FGM as an important cultural tradition, others believe there are moral absolutes and that subjecting children to practices like FGM against their will is unethical. The document explores perspectives on both sides of the issue and suggests further discussion and education are needed.
