Basically, what I'm thinking is this: A lot of people are full of hooey. That's right, I said hooey. Not that Moroccans will be, but that all those guide books that talk about prim and properness all the time. Yes, this will be Ramadan and everyone will be fasting. I get that.
However, younger people (who ware the people I'm going to want to spend the most time with) are a little different from their aged counterparts. I do expect some people to be more liberal than others, and for those that aren't, I will be treating them respectfully.
But I can't believe that young people will be all that different from me. Sure Americans (and everyone else, as a matter of fact) do things a little differently from what another, but isn't it all rooted in satisfying basic needs anyway?
Food, though different, satisfies hunger. It's just a variance of degree.
Of course, maybe I'm the one full of hooey.
