Hi Lisa

Wow, I think someone has taken my words out of context. I remember saying something like, "of course abuse takes place in Morocco"... as with everywhere else in the world lol. I myself have never known an abusive Moroccan. Of course they exist, but to claim that everyone is... it's extreme, putting it mildly. But just clearing that up; I mean it's ridiculous for anyone to imply that your husband might be abusive, just cause some other Moroccans are.

Like I said before, domestic abuse could be happening right next door to anyone, it's not just being carried out by fiery muslim men. Usually it's by people who seem the "nicest" in society.

I've given up on reading a lot of posts here... I'll read intelligent, unbiased commentary, but not ones that'll make me believe I'll be sold in exchange for camels and circumcised by force as soon as I set foot in North Africa lol!
