Re: Liberal families and culture

In my opinion, being liberal is being able to adjust with the times while remaining faithful to your core values and principles. Being liberal does not mean that you shed your own values and principles and follow whatever is trendy or "western." I find that to be fickle and insecure, not liberal.

It is quite possible to take pride and interest in one's culture and remain faithful to one's cultural values while adjusting with the times, so I don't think liberal and culture are contradictory. There are certain aspects of certain cultures that are not appropriate for every environment or situation but that can be managed with common sense and taking situational appropriateness into account. It is not necessary that people discard their entire cultural beliefs.

I belong to conservative area, where people are still struggling to conserve their culture.

Liberal is just a relative term and I think sometimes being conservative is a positive quality.

Re: Liberal families and culture

I agree with first part, not the bold.

When a person is bound by 'core values and principles', isn't liberated from constraints like these, i wouldn't call that a liberal.

Re: Liberal families and culture

There are varying degrees of liberalism. What one person considers liberal, another may not.

As far as constraints, is anyone really free of all constraints? As much as some people may delude themselves otherwise, everyone has some sort of constraint, be it legal, social, moral, or personal.

Re: Liberal families and culture

True, but isn't the 'liberal' one who seeks a society free of constraints?

Re: Liberal families and culture

^Isn't that an anarchist rather than a liberal?

Re: Liberal families and culture

haha, oh well, we all view 'liberals' differently. Would be interesting if some self proclaimed liberal were to come here and share their views.

Re: Liberal families and culture

Are all backward people sharp as a whip and as smart as you ? :k: :slight_smile:

Re: Liberal families and culture

folk wisdom is always sharp, because it arises from roots and can look into roots

Re: Liberal families and culture

Liberal yet faithfully religious. I learnt a long time ago that being conservative and being religious were two different things. So many people still mistake the two.

Re: Liberal families and culture

What's the difference ?
