Megan Gay-Sensitivity

Everyone is sensitive to their own culture in relation to others. Nobody's culture can be changed, because it is embedded into who they are. The challenging thing is trying to not only understand someone else's culture, but to respect someone of their culture and be sensitive to their sensitivity of their own culture. The problem that many people face is not just respecting other cultures, but it's deciding how much of their own culture they want to associate themselves with. If someone wants to interrogate another for their cultural beliefs, they better be ready to back up their own beliefs. This is why maintaining sensitivity towards another culture or community is so difficult. Nobody can truly respect another culture or community without respecting their own first.
