Answer: Cultural relativism fails to provide that person with clear guidance. (Option C)

Explanation: Cultural relativism refers to the principle which establish that an individual should be understood and jugded based on his or her beliefs, values, and practice of his or her culture, rather than using the principle of other cultures.

However, since the individual belongs to different societies, it is difficult to find guidance because the individual will judged and understood based on varying criteria of many culture.

Answer:

c. cultural relativism fails to provide that person with clear guidance.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cultural relativism is the belief that one's culture justifies his behavior and therefore in order to understand one's behaviour, his culture should be considered.

In Gensler's views, a person who is a member of more than society cannot be defined properly by his culture as is reflected in cultural relativism.
