Yes but you've got Moroccan roots, so of course you would know. Most British people don't know anything at all about the place, remember.

here iS the problem.


There are some things we Moroccans do WHEN WE GO BACK HOME:d that is so cool by SOME but may sound weird by others like. you see guys holding hands in the streets . that may look Gay to some but not to Moroccans. other weird things. when people meet each others they usually hug and kiss 4 times and some go as far as hurting your chest or like one once told me . he almost broke the bones in my hands and said that is the correct way of saying hello ahhahhaha. So when a foreigner see these acts they laugh at them where as we are quite fine with them

and as some of those foreigners see it normal when they pull their pants down n show their @ss in public to show approval or instead of giving a finger...but if one do it in morocco,....we say.....he's a GAY ..i think one should have some idea about the culture of the place he is at, so as not to get disappointed!

I see your point,but surely that doesn't warrant a whole article written about it though?!, I thought it was more a point of observation as a lead-in to the crux of the article..but it never came ..just seemed a bit stale,i would have thought the same had I read the same article about a country that I don't know much about...
