"Jean Paul Sartre promoted ethical subjectivism as a form of moral relativism... only one's individual moral identity has any real authenticity as a source of moral truth."

Moral relativism explains that ethical standards, morality, and right or wrong are culturally based and are subject to an individual's choice.
For example:
If you were to say to someone that math is the best subject in the world ,but the person you are speaking to says that English is the best subject in the world, would it be ethical to argue that your favorite subject is truly the best when you know that it can't change the persons mind nor your mind? No, because everybody is entitled to their own opinion.
