"Everything outside of my culture is good" If everything is 'good', you don't need ethics.

That's why I say moral relativism doesn't really have any. All cultural norms are equally good.

Well… that's how you defined it! So of course it has that property.

Well, I am talking about what I am talking about. If you're talking abt another meaning, I cld well agree with you.

I'm not really saying that. I'm just using it to describe the belief that we should consider all cultural values equally ethical

Ok. So… regarding 'the belief […] ethical': I agree that that doesn't make much sense. If that's your point, I agree.
