Multiculturalism is fine as long as cultures are compatible. Multiculturalism should not tolerate oppression of women and other groups merely because some culture has such a tradition. Not all cultures are equal.

Right. Multiculturalism comes, or should come, with some assimilation as it has in the USA for most its history. Of course, as a free country, immigrants are not legally compelled to assimilate 100 percent with an average norm. Many of us stray from those norms and could be said as not being fully assimilated to a statistical norm. I could be said to be a person who is not 100 percent assimilated based on my own personal beliefs.
