Not so angelic teenagers by globewalker
Anyone with teenagers want to provide some feedback. My husband is from a smaller city in Morocco. We live in a big city in Canada. My husband is highly critical of Canadian, American and European Teenagers labelling them as being very disrespectful ...
Good information to know. I think my husband's expectations are unrealistic for current times. I am trying to advise her on the reality that she needs to focus on her education right now. Drugs, alcohol and smoking are not "cool" ... Read More

It depends on what you define suffering as? A lot of people will suffer seeing their loved ones and freinds die in pain and agony. A lot of people that work in health care like me will suffer as a result of watching their patients die in pain and ... Read More

If anyone does not understand how big of a deal this situation is they need to read up on pandemics. There is a really interesting show on Netflix's on the topic. As someone who works in health care to those who dont self isolate to help slow ... Read More

Payment methods in Morocco by Priscilla
Hello everyone, Once youre settled in Morocco, you will need to make some basic purchases, like groceries or pay bills. Hence, it is essential to know the payment methods available in your host country. Which are the most common payment ...
One thing I find a bit tricky is that when you convert money from the bank or get money from an ATM you get bigger bills. A lot of times when trying to buy stuff that was not very expensive people would not have the change to give you so sometimes ... Read More
Moroccan men and cafes??? by Shannan
I am an American woman and have a question for someone to answer honestly?? Since living as a single woman in Morocco over the past few months I can't help but notice everyday when I pass at least 20 cafes many of the men yell at me like ...
Well.... to be honest the women in my family including myself can handle the attention and are not shy to insult someone if it is getting on their nerves. To be very honest some are even bold enough to directly tell someone who crossed the line ... Read More
Is this young Moroccan man playing with me? by GuestPoster7420
I met a young Moroccan man in a ” social media forum” a few month ago and we emediately hit it off. We began speaking every day. I’ve been to Morocco and visit him and his family. I am soon going back but are now having second ...
Goldkhalifa, I agree with a lot of what you said ex people not marrying someone in a similar position. I am also not saying more opinion is more valid then yours or anyone else's on this topic. I am trying to point out we all have our bias ... Read More

mihalina, There are horrible men and women from every corner of the world that is sadly why you have to protect yourself before your partner. Some people do not value the concept of commitment. You can at best try to weed them out. You may want ... Read More

Goldkhalifa, LOL.... That is what every society wants you to think. There is the ideal and the reality. If you are religious and are only around people in these circles this is what you see. Also people will act differently around you in fear of ... Read More

I was reading over some older comments in this thread. I think of course it is wrong to scam people, but I think people should also hold some accountability for being careless enough to be scammed. Why are you buying someone's affection? Read More

baijad, Your wise comments reflect your age and life experience. My support of your comments also reflects my age and life experience. Reality is often no so romantic. Relationships are exchanges between 2 people. It is up to each person to ... Read More
Prenup in Morocco by Shannan
If an American citizen decides to marry a Moroccan and both ppl want a prenup does that couple need two prenup agreements like one from USA and one from Morocco or if both are living in Morocco just one translated in both languages... Thanks guys
I think the one created in the USA would only relate to what happens with things in the USA. If you put something under the Moroccan partner's name only in Morocco, good luck getting a pieces of that back. Your effort in doing this depends on ... Read More

PaintTheFuture, Does this person even have any property to protect or are you just trying to protect your own money and property? Morocco is not Saudi Arabia. You can live in the same place together without being married. You just can't check ... Read More

Sara.m.j89, I understand what you mean. But looking and continue to stare at someone is very different. There is an actual term for this in English that I can't remember. Where I live there were actually signs on the buses and subways ... Read More

To Narcfreelife, What a well written answer! I 100% agree with your thinking. Marriage is not a vacation. You need to understand the day to day reality not just the experiences of hanging out with someone for a few weeks living off your savings. Read More

It dont think looking is a big deal personally. It is pretty human. We all have eyes. It is like you mentioned, the yelling and calling out and making comments that makes things very uncomfortable and scary for a lot of women. I think if women ... Read More

Hi, I did not make my comments carelessly. I did my homework on the topic. YES there are children that live on the streets in Morocco and in other places in the world that do not have a family that cares for and protects them. I know have babies ... Read More

Your wife likely thinks this way because she has been raised to think this way. However, if a bunch of women get there first, then the men are entering their newly occupied zone. Free wifi and clean washrooms are very hard to resist. Regarding ... Read More

I agree with parts of what you are saying, but again not exactly all of it. 1. Regarding the need for men to keep women safe. This creates women that are weak. If you want to survive and prosper you need to be strong regardless of if you are a ... Read More

I don't fully agree with a lot of what you are saying. I think a huge difference between rape and sexual harassment in Morocco compared to place like Canada, the USA and the UK is that in Morocco girls and women are far less likely to report ... Read More

I just came back from Morocco and have been there a bunch of times, but the last time was 10 years old. I went to a lot of cities and found that in general men were more respectful/ normal. I went to markets alone, went to eat a few times alone ... Read More
