A religious Moroccan Muslim would not do this to his wife. There are good Moroccans who live by the Quran and follow it. They are allowed to marry a Jew or Christian and it is only with first wife'spermission they are allowed to take second bride. The new generation of men and women do not want more than one wife and family involved. They see the problems and issues in older relatives decisions of taking more than one family and providing for them. The men also have to show he can afford to take care of both brides.

The best jobs in Morocco does not pay well. Some make $30 a week or less. Some require several months of training and all without pay. I know several Moroccan men who would never marry their own. They are selfish and the men do not want a girl/woman they know will do anything for money including selling out their love to marry a richer man. Why would you love someone for mere fact they are in love with your money? Not all Moroccan girls/women are pretty here. They all pretty much look alike therefore men like the looks of blue eyed or light color eyes and hair and some of my friends do like affection/love from older women but usually with a 10 year age range,not 20-30.
