Clearly you are one of the people who has not taken advantage of free education in Morocco. I don't understand your point and furthermore, you talk about things that are distant from the subject.

I didn't meet my husband on the internet although I don't have judgement for a person who did. This is the big difference I am taking about. It is biblical, but I think Islam has the same principals that we should not look at the speck in our brother's eye, when we have a log in our own.

Translation, if you don't get my point. Stop talking about the western woman as being sluts and loose women when you have the same thing going on in your own country. Where did you get your statistics from that only 2% of Moroccan woman live like western woman and that 98% of western women are living like tramps???? This is ridiculous.

I don't owe you any explanation, but where one finds love can be anywhere in the world. I have many opporunities to marry in my country, but I fell in love with someone in Morocco. Open your mind to the possibilities of the world. You said a Moroccan man will marry his own kind because he can not find better! .... I hope God can soften your heart a little. Inshallah!

My life proves my point! You said I chose Moroccan and I suffer??? Perhaps you are not able to express yourself in English, but I have not suffered at all. On the contrary, I have never been happier. I have a beautiful husband who chose me for his wife. He thanks Allah for me everyday.

Western women, just remember you are great too, like Moroccan, Spanish, Italian, Australian women and no person has the right to tell you different because of where you come from. We all are worthy of respect and this narrow minded view that western woman are not good enough to marry is an uneducated comment that we should defend.
