This Is All Kinds Of Wrong of the Day: Calls for the reform of Morocco’s penal code were sparked over the weekend as news spread of a teenage girl who had committed suicide after being compelled to marry her rapist.
In Morocco, a rapist can “opt out” of a prison term by marrying his victim, so long as the victim and their family agree. Despite this clause, many say victims are often strong-armed into marriages they want no part of.
16-year-old Amina Filali’s father, Lahcen, blamed the marriage on pressure from the courts. “The prosecutor advised my daughter to marry,” he told the online news site goud.ma. “He said: ‘Go and make the marriage contract’.”
According to Amina’s mother, the girl complained on more than one occasion that her husband/rapist was beating her, but was advised to be patient. On Saturday, Amina could no longer take the abuse, and made the decision to end her own life by swallowing rat poison.
Moroccan woman, galvanized by Amina’s tragic death, have taken to the streets and launched petitions to demand that criminal law be changed to make it explicit that rapists cannot be allowed to marry their victims.
Moroccan law is known for being relatively female-friendly, compared with the rest of North Africa. Despite this, nearly two-third of all Moroccan women experience violence in their lifetimes, and many attorneys are ignorant of recent pro-women reforms, such as the raising of the marriage age from 15 to 18.

Complain about living in the States? Move to Morocco, bitches.
So many people take our civil liberties for granted and demand more freedom.
Freedom for what?

Chinese proverb, “Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day. Teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime.” Kiva is a nonprofit that helps lift people out of poverty through microfinancing. It’s a beautiful organization, and i really hope you join me.
Help me pick a new pair of flats! I’m partial to the red ones. :)
Since I don’t know how to reply to my own post, the top right ones are glitter gold, not white :(
My coworkers wonder more than I do why I don’t get promoted. I actually didn’t even consider it til they asked me!
They all assume it’s bc I want to go back to school, and they don’t want to go through the trouble of training if I won’t be in that position for too long. Darn!
Nice to know they believe in me though. :)
In Tina Fey’s “Bossypants”, improv artists are taught to say “yes, and…” to everything. It’s the only way to keep the scene alive, and to confirm to your colleague that you believe in them and whatever they’ve created (even if it isn’t real).
Lately, all I’ve been hearing is no. “It’s the law.”, “It’s regulated by management.”, “Here give us your phone number.” It was probably tossed out. “No, I can’t talk to you.” That was by far the worst of them all, “No, I’m sorry but it takes too much time.”
The last one was the least harsh, but it would have been so wrong if it were any worse. I worked there for months and I can’t get 15 minutes of their time. After this many rejections, it shouldn’t phase me if I get the same response from schools, right?
My angry turn off phone ignore ppl thing doesn’t work when I have a dinner reservation in two hours with someone I don’t feel like talking to. What to do?
