Ok, but thats only an option for men.
No, I’m not okay with disrespecting an ancient culture that has been systemically abused and dismantled and is struggling to maintain itself.
Im also not some shitty American talk show ignoring all that for a publicity stunt.

It’s an instrument.
Culturally some people should be stoned, raped, abducted, put on the stake and burned alive.
Guess you accept that stuff too? Or no because it involves a life?
What about male and female circumcision, those are cultural.
What about having children become brides? That’s cultural.
What about the KKK? Sundown towns? Racism? That’s cultural.
Sorry I don’t honestly give a fuck about people’s cultures. They’re not that special, learning about them and recording it and preserving aspects of it is cool but respecting something because it is someone’s culture is silly.
