This is another way of saying, "Morality is relative. Relative to circumstances."


I disagree. The morality is to cover the body. But in some circumstances, it is scandalous to show a bit of ankle, in others, it is not.

Circumstances are relative to ...........what?

Is this one of your "nuanced and subtle" answers?

The morality is to cover the body.

That settles it. lol
Burka, bikini, or just pasties. All are absolute morality (umm, depending on the time and place-yes? no? yes? no?) since they cover the body---kinda.
Nope, nothing relative about this is there? Nope.

"Relative" is a word for them leftists right? We just can't allow anything to be relative.

These bikinis are the same answer to the question, "What kind of meat do priests eat on Fridays?"
