Cultural Difference
“Because of our cultural conditioning, we not only think our actions are normal, the way everyone behaves; we
also think what we do is right, the way everyone should behave. We therefore regard any behavior that
is different from ours as wrong. Naturally, this puts cultural incidents into a whole new light, because of
cultural differences—different, deeply held beliefs and instincts about what is natural, normal, right, and good—cross-cultural interactions are subject to all manner
of confusion, misunderstanding, and misinterpretation. In a word, they are often unsuccessful. We have no idea, in short, that what is normal to us is not also
universal, that much of what you think of as human nature is only cultural.”
