In Sterba’s Subjectivism in Ethics how should we as individuals question some strong ethical questions. In the reading Sterba uses the example of gay rights. Is it okay, or is it wrong. With many people going to both sides of whether it is write or wrong. Some think that there is nothing wrong with the LGBTQ community while others are totally against it, and we think of it based on our moral judgments.
