Women in the Moroccan Sahara : The fatter the better

In every society, being fat is something unloved ... No one wants to be overweight, and obese people, even in developed countries, suffer from social issues like loneliness, anxiety and depression. Most people consider a fat man or woman as a ugly or hideous person. This is very offensive and unfortunately, it's internationally popular (particularly between teenagers and young adults), but not here in Southern Morocco. Here, in the majority of the Great Sahara - it can vary from one region to another but the notion is the same - a fat woman is a hot one.

 

Unusually and weirdly, Shakira, Rihanna and Kim Kardashian are not sexy women anymore! Sporty girls are just skinny, athletic shapes are as ugly as sticks and perfect bodies no longer are perfect. A man from the Great Sahara, in any event, do still hold the same features and definitions of the beauty : the most important qualifier is the heavy body.

 

At a very young age, mothers begin to make their daughters ready for marital life, they prepare them physically. Fathers seem to be proud of their fleshy daughters, and kind of ashamed if they have a thin kid (some fathers consider their skinny daughters as a curse). Young men are racing for winning the heart of the fattest (the princess), and the one who marry a fat, beefy girl is the lucky one. Girls themselves are proud to have a chubby body.

 

The whole Sahara believe in one single thing when it comes to beauty, even stars (singers and actresses) have the same perspective : The fatter the better.

Introduction to Morocco

 





















The common, but very faulty image of Morocco is this : 

Most people think that Morocco is a big dune of desert and flocks of camels wandering around. As a part of the Sahara Desert, this is partly true. A truer and more rigorous image would comprise a large depiction of the Northern and the Western parts of Morocco. There you can find sandy beaches, isolated islands, green forests, dark woods, grassy meadows, mountain ranges, prolific lands and much more. Other eye-openers include fabulous snow-skiing in Ifrane (5460 feet in altitude) and Oukaimden (10738 feet in altitude); stellar golf courses in Cabo Negro (near Tetouan), Agadir and Benslimane; and the Mediterranean climate that welcome every tourist to come and feel the Beauty of this amazing place.

People around the world talk a lot about Morocco and its mystery, but are they right? Well, yeah! Maybe they are. Morocco has an immortal, everlasting feature that no longer exists in other places of the globe, a feeling that the bygone with all its barbarity and luster still survives. Just walk throught the tight little streets of the Medina of Fes (Fes here is just an example , you may find others ancient cities with the same features like Tetouan, Tangier, Meknes, Rabat, etc.), and you will find out that your time-machine really works. Just on arrival, you are dived into a mysterious urbanization that you have ever witnessed before. 

It is a territory of amazement and astonishment, enchantment and magic, and the perpetual charm is always there!

Morocco is the land of love, people here are very friendly and open-minded. You go along with their culture and you feel nothing but their warm hospitality ... you'll find yourself no longer just visiting but justly living.
