    Not if the custom means I am not respected.

    I won't respect a custom that establishes an inferior status,  that hinders my freedom to move, to feel, to speak.

  • For a serious discussion one needs to define what "respect" entails.  In a general way though I say, no.  Other countries have customs like the suppression of women, theocracy, stoning criminals and such. These do not merit respect.
