To beg wh: Acrdg to Morocn law, homosexual acts are illegal and will be punished severely. Near Rabat, for example, two young Morocns were sentenced to four months imprisonment each 2013 bee of homosexual ntacts.
Strongly fluenced by relign and patriarchal stctur, Morocn society is characterized by tradnal valu, and is, th, rather homophobic.
Neverthels, homosexualy is tolerated to the greatt possible extent, as far as ’s lived out discreetly. They are not gay, but munitg wh their iends the tradnal manner. Hetero — as well as homo — or bisexual upl should be discreet and save livg out their passns for the privacy of the riad.
RENNTRE GRATUE GAY MAROC
In spe of the reprsive ndns, a gay scene has grown Marrakech. Soon, the word of a gay night life the South-Morocn imperial cy spread. The top addrs is, whout a doubt, Le Diamant noir, which is rather gay than gay-iendly durg the week.
Apart om that, the gay party scene meets at the VIP-Club, Le Pacha, Le Comptoir Darna, or the other bars along the Avenue Mohammed V. Th, homosexuals are not treated differently om heterosexuals. Some gut ho are labeled “gay-iendly” and are ed to homosexual clients, so there are no irratns when, say, a double bed is requted.
The gay night life n be bt experienced one of the clubs mentned above, but is advisable to keep a keen md even there: It is not unlikely that the young man showerg you wh pliments is a prostute, and the police are rather strict their effort to nta prostutn, pecially as is gradually creasg Moroc. Apart om this, Marrakech is as good a holiday statn for gays and lbians as is for heterosexually orientated.
