Why do people have to justify their morality with reasons? Where does that rule come from?

Quote: And WHY is raping women morally good in society A? (fyi - I have never seen a decent reason for rape to be a-okay.)

I am sure rapists have a reason in their mind as to why they rape; but why do they need a reason anyways? I do not think that’s a necessity in social relativism.

That's not a rule, that's what people do when you ask them why they believe/ascribe to certain things (like morality). "Because it's always been that way" or "God" are reasons.

I could not tell you if people NEED a reason, but I think some shit lead a person to become a rapist. And you're right, that's not really a thing of social relativism. But my degree of social relativism does not go far - just descriptive.

And even if society A has a reason for rape- that does not make it moral. Just making sure that is clear.
