What are you trying to say here? Invariant is not a verb, and it's definition of "never changing" doesn't make sense in the way you used it.

You want the mathematical definition. All cultures judge others according to their own norms, that's essentially the definition of what a culture is: a set of norms and behaviors by which things are judged.
