No, All Cultures are Not Equal

I once read a cogent remark by the great Mark Steyn that "By pretending that all cultures are equal, multiculturalism doesn’t preserve traditional cultures so much as sustain them in an artificial state that ensures they’ll develop bizarre pathologies and mutate into some freakish hybrid of the worst of both worlds."

Now this, from Joel Brinkley, professor of journalism at Stanford University:

Too often, soldiers on patrol passed an older man walking hand-in-hand with a pretty young boy. Their behavior suggested he was not the boy's father. Then, British soldiers found that young Afghan men were actually trying to "touch and fondle them," military investigator AnnaMaria Cardinalli told me. "The soldiers didn't understand."
