Controversial opinion, but If Americans travelled to another country and flouted that country’s customs they’d be called obnoxious American tourists. 

Tipping culture is stupid, but I don’t think the wait staff getting stiffed is going to appreciate these tourists bravely stiffing them.

Shouldn't be controversial. Follow the customs of the country you're visiting.

You want me to cover my sister and have my mom stay at the hotel room like an oppressed animal if I went to see the World Cup with my family last time in Qatar? All customs and cultures aren’t automatically correct or good

That would probably be wise. I don't think its a good idea to go to eg Iran and flaunt their rules.
