And Marrakech, a place that Himself had particularly loved, transpired to be not so wonderful for me because – in one of those unfortunate oversights – I didn't have a penis. They're not so keen on women in Marrakech. To put it mildly. But that's a different story.
In "Making It Up As I Go Along," Marian Keyes reflects on her experiences in Marrakech, a city that her companion cherished. However, she had a disappointing visit due to the cultural attitudes towards women in the region. Her lack of male privilege made her feel unwelcome, leading to an unfortunate realization about gender dynamics in that locale.
Keyes' candid observation highlights the challenges women face in societies that prioritize male experiences. While the city holds a special place for some, her perspective reveals a contrasting experience, offering a critique of the gender biases prevalent in various cultures.
