Life in Morocco
I came across a post recently about how much a man should make for his wife to stay home and not work. Most of the answers were around 15k a month, which I get, especially in places like Casablanca or Rabat where the cost of living is high. But honestly, how many young Moroccan men will ever have the chance to make even half of that? I mean, the job market is brutal right now—unemployment rates are through the roof, even for people with master's degrees. So, for someone with just a BAC or a degree from La FAC, the odds of landing a decent job are pretty slim. The reality is, most young people don't have access to the kind of opportunities needed to hit that income level.
And then there's the question of expectations. Society seems to expect men to own a house, drive a nice car, provide a solid education for their kids, and have a stable career—while at the same time, the opportunities just aren’t there. It's like these expectations don’t line up with the reality on the ground, especially when the economy isn’t giving people the tools they need to succeed. It's frustrating when it feels like you're being asked to meet a standard that doesn't even seem achievable given the circumstances.
my post is not intended to start a gender debate, instead why not come up with ideas or something that could help!
