Arabic Men and The Code Of Honor


In Morocco, men work off a code of honor with men.  They clearly respect one another and friendship between men is one of the most important things in a man’s life.  The man will help the other in time of need, when they don’t have money, if they need a place to stay, and they will always choose the man over the girl. They have a duty to one another to take care and watch over one another. 

This code of honor can be present among women, but women appear to be more interconnected within their community.  Muslim women have their cliques, but I do not see them interact with one another in the same manner as men. They are always talking and gossiping and will help one another in a market or on a bus. The men stick together like glue.
