This, I think, is an error. We cannot coherently say it is wrong for women in our culture to be denied equal rights but fine for women in other cultures. My values are not imposed on anyone else by saying I think all women deserve equal rights.
Precisely. We get in a mess if we start saying it's wrong for Christians to be homophobic but fine for Muslims to be so because so many Muslims live in lands once colonised by a Christian culture.

This is one instance I think where we should aspire to raise everyone to the highest common denominator, rather than revert everyone to the lowest. The use of force (colonialism) is unnecessary however. Denial of privileges associated with civilized society might be one method.
