Cultural relativists argue that: 1. no universal standards or rules exist for labeling behaviors as abnormal.

Explanation:

According to cultural relativism, abnormality has to do with cultural norms. That means there are no universal standards or rules for labeling behaviors as abnormal. Different cultures, therefore, have different definitions of what is and isn't abnormal. Of course cultural relativism has opponents who see the acceptance of cultural norms in defining abnormality as dangerous.
