Answer:
In a recent discussion, some people said that the “Golden Rule” is wrong or at least misguided. As the argument goes, people like different things, like things differently, and disagree about everything. How can we expect that treating people as we want to be treated will lead to any sort of agreeable outcome?
If I’m a vegetarian and I’m offered meat to eat, it doesn’t make me happy simply knowing that the host really likes steak and would want to be offered steak. If you extend the Golden Rule into even more sensitive aspects of public life, and especially in the arena of cross-cultural relationships, you will easily recognize that the Golden Rule is simply wrong.
This perspective is both observant and legalistic and misses the point. It accurately observes that “one shoe doesn’t fit all feet.” People have different needs and tastes in all areas of life, from material world objects to relationship dynamics. If we want people to know that we respect them, then we will respect their likes and dislikes. Yes, it’s true that someone who uses a cookie-cutter set of behaviors in their treatment of others (based on their own likes) is truly going to end up stepping on someone’s toes. But to invalidate the Golden Rule on the basis of differences between people and cultures is to subject the rule to a legalistic and transactional interpretation – “It must apply strictly to every area of personal preference, or it doesn’t apply at all.”
