There is no kissing intimately in public or in front of the family , however, it does not mean it is absolutel;y FORBIDDEN. I saw loved ones kissing and hugging at airports. Not as much as in USA, but it did take place. People are more reserved. We kissed on back roads and highways and when no one was looking,lol. Moroccans feel it is to be shared in private out of respect of others. Moroccans do not think less of women. You will be surprised how they are family and they live their lives like we do. They are normal peaceful sweet people. Some women here hooked up with bad men. Enjoy your trip.
