What that doesn't mean is that morality of actions defined and assessed in a particular context can't be determined.
Cultural relativity is when your own ethics shift depending on who is doing something, not noticing different cultural values exist

Ok, *that* definition I can relate to more than the previous one.

That's always what I meant. If I was unclear, that's why we're at cross purposes.

"…ethics shift depending on" — I'm focusing on the "depending on" part, assuming consistent ethics, applied in a context-aware manner.

Well, I'm talking about inconsistent ethics. Culturally relative ones.

Are they inconsistent from an external perspective or are they explicitly considered inconsistent even by the person holding them?

Externally. The person may well be unaware of his own inconsistency & need to be shown they have double standards re culture.
