HERE IS A SURVERY FROM FREEDOM HOUSE THAT SHOULD ANSWER YOUR QUESTIONS.....\n\n\nMorocco is a country undergoing positive changes towards economic and political liberalization in particular more recently under the leadership of King Mohammad VI who ascended to the throne in 1999. Morocco is a traditional, hereditary monarchy with a limited parliamentary system. NGOs advocating on behalf of women’s rights are generally free to organize, plan conferences, seminars...\n\nNondiscrimination and Access to Justice: \n\nMorocco’s legal system is based on the Maliki School of jurisprudence under Islamic law and the civil law systems of both France and Spain. According to the constitution, women are afforded equal political rights as men however there is no statement of equal civil rights. There are measures taken to advance the status of Moroccan women such as the creation of a ministry responsible just for reviewing the status of women. For Muslim citizens, family courts adjudicate over issues of marriage, divorce, inheritance, child custody, etc. which are partial to men’s rights. In addition, Moroccan women can neither pass on citizenship to foreign-born husbands nor to the children of their foreign-born husbands except under special circumstances. New laws enacted have generally promoted the interests of women under the penal code. Cases of adultery, abuse, violence and are punishable equally for men and women but young women are prosecuted for pregnancy out of wedlock, Witness/testimony of a woman is still not equal to that of a man and while Morocco passed CEDAW, it did adopt reservations to certain articles.\n\nAutonomy, Security and Freedom of the Person: \n\nWhile the majority of people in Morocco are Muslim, there are small Christian and Jewish minorities who are free to practice their religions. Muslims who choose to convert other religions encounter social ostracism and it is unlawful for a Muslim woman to marry a non-Muslim husband. Laws preventing women from traveling independently or obtaining a passport have been repealed however in practice government officials may still request young girls and married women to produce consent from fathers or husbands.\n\nA progressive step towards gender equality within the family was an amendment to the CSP stating that women and men shared joint responsibility over the family and family matters with rights and duties of both spouses without discrimination; raising the marriage age for girls from 15 to 18 years is another example of policies adopted to gradually improve the status of women. Women are now offered the option of consensual divorce and divorce due to irreconcilable differences.\n\nThey are still at a disadvantage in custody cases and the trafficking of young women whether Moroccan or African is a serious problem for the country. Underage employment remains a common element of Moroccan society where young girls between the ages of 10 to 12 are hired as domestic servants although the legal employment age was raised from 12 to 15 in 2002.\n\nWomen continue to suffer from violence and harassment within the family and in public and better measures should be taken to prosecute such offences.\n\nEconomic Rights and Equal Opportunity: \n\nDiscrimination against women in the Moroccan economy is a factor holding back gender equality. A lack of access to equal economic rights is generally more common amongst the rural population than the urbanized segments of society due to lack of literacy and knowledge about rights, however apply to all women when it comes to inheritance laws which still distribute property according to Islamic law. Moroccan women are legally entitled to freely and independently dispose of the incomes they generate and property inherited. Women-owned businesses represent a tiny fraction of female labor participation; those in business tend to rely on personal funds or family capital to start-up and are unwilling or uninformed about access to credit resource

Under the federal law they are not REQUIRED to hire a certain number of women, but rather their workforce must be representative of the community in which it is based.  There is still some legal debate over what that REALLY means.

I particularly like "Same Sex Unions in Pre Modern Europe" by John Boswell and it would be neat to see his evidence online, perhaps in timeline form.  Gay marriage is a hot topic, and those of us who do history know that this whole "marriage has always been between a man and a woman" thing is total crap.  Plenty of societies have had, allowed, and encouraged same sex marriage, like Native American societies.  I would like to see more about that online.

The ones who understand the laws are fine with them. The thing is that many people in America and other parts of the world don't inderstand the laws set in these countries, and people always fear what they don't understand. I saw the post above me that talks about a small minority of women from KSA who 'escaped' and wrote books on their 'lives'. I am sure you can find hundreds of thousands of women in the United States that have endured discrimination in the workplace ,Schools and even at home as copmared to there male counterparts and some who have been abused physically to quite an extent.. This Does not mean that all women hold that same point of view or are treated the same. Well the truth is that there is no abuse being done to the women in Saudia Arabia, they are free todo whatever is permitted to them through religon and they have all the rights that God has given them. We talk about freedom in the US but even to this day there has not been a single female president in the US, where as islamic countires such as Pakistan and Bangladesh have had female leaders. The women in the US have this Visage of freedom whereas they still have to struggle ten times more then men to get anywhere equal to men.In the 250 or years of US Democracy We have selected the first Female as head speaker in the Senate, it has taken over 200 years , where is the equality now? Lets not forget salaries , women are paid less then men for the same jobs on average( http://www.boston.com/news/local/articles/2005/12/08/working_women_earn_less/?page=1 just one of many articles on research done), where is the equality ? All I am saying is that The east has a different way of life which has been there for the last 1400 years and it is very difficult for a person living in societies such as the US to understand the brain set of these people, we should not be so quick to judge there traditions based on a handful of scorned women. bottom line statistics are always bias and they never give the whole story. remember that saying , Believe Half of what you see and none of what you hear.

Well, it seems the answers come logically if we ask this question:\nFor society to run smoothly, what are some basic requirements?\n\nRules might come under the following categories:\n- laws which preserve and guarangtee basic civil and human rights (the points of the FIRST AMENDMENT): freedom of speech, press, assembly, religion, and petition\n\n- laws establishing structures giving legal rights and ownership\n- laws dictating collection of revenue or taxes for the state\n-  laws regarding traveling and travelers in the land\n- laws regulating trade and commerce or affecting the price of goods\n- laws regarding military service\n- laws regarding criminal actions, and dictating process of criminal proceedings, as well as limiting and defining punishments given to people\n-laws governing inheritance\n-laws against hazards to the public safety or against agents that might lead to disease outbreaks\n\nHope these are a few ideas to get you started.

I would assume it would be alittle more conservative.\nchildren- three or so. \nIncome-enough to support a family,male should earn more than the female.\neducation-males and females both dhould go to college.\nHome-woman should be at home\nfree time- in front of the tube.\nmarital status- interesting. i would belive that they value a marriage sticking together more than anything and divorce is frowned on. IF you reach a certain age and arnt married, there are social consequences, esp.for the woman.
