I think that's defined as egoism; ethics tend to be concerned with the theoretical value of morality.

- thenduks 16y agoI see what you're saying and I don't pretend to be an expert (or even very knowledgeable in general) on the subject. All I meant was that ethics are a very personal thing and what's 'right' to one person may not (and, if you ask me, should not necessarily) be right to another. Ethical egoism says that you should do what is in your self interest, and that doing so makes you ethical... Rather than that I'm trying to ask: What is 'good' or 'bad'? Different cultures, races, sexes and individuals have (at least) slightly varying opinions on what is right and wrong.
