What are some taboos of Morocco?

Answer 1

Morocco does not have that many taboos in the sense that someone will tell you to be quiet and not bring up a subject. There are many more taboos where discussing something will result in vociferous shouting and disagreement, but the Moroccan with whom you are discussing the issue will be more than willing to talk (although he will be aghast that you don't agree with him).

The only silent taboo is to talk about a non-monarchic Moroccan State. While Moroccans are willing to entertain the idea of a weaker monarchy, like what currently exists in Spain, the complete removal of the king is something about which people do not believe it proper to speak.

Some loud taboos include the following topics:

* Issues with Mohammed or general Islamic practice * Pro-Israeli opinions * Support of the United States foreign policy, especially as concerns the Arab World * Atheism * Homosexuality, Crossdressing, Transgender, etc. * Shiite Islamic Periods of Moroccan History and Critical Reassessment of Moroccan History However, if you stay away from discussing religion, politics, and history, you will Moroccans to be a very hospitable and lovely people.
