Divorce Moroccan-style

The French Le Monde is reporting that the Moroccan women are doing great in terms of their fights for justice. Specially divorce. Plus, women in Morocco are now able to become Imam's, they arent wearing face veils (bizarre!!!) and modernity seems to be arriving!, I was quite impressed to hear that the birth rate per woman has declined from 5.5 to 2.5. This makes women more economically active and reduces the pressure on resources in resource constrained countries. Mind you, Morocco has a long way to go in many other ways such as democracy, free speech, human rights, etc., but small steps, my friends, small steps.
