Answer:

A. Judging a person's actions based on his or her cultural context

Step-by-step explanation:

Cultural relativism is when you judge actions based on their own culture instead of being judged relatively to another culture. This is not ideal in every situation since there are some cultures around the world that practice some very unhealthy or dangerous rituals which we find bad in our western culture. Or for example, they used to burn widows in some parts of India and we would not tolerate that in the USA for example regardless of your culture because that is not moral.
