A controversial video on YouTube has caused an uproar in Morocco. The video, titled “The First Moroccan Version of Blind Dating with Clothes,” shows a young Moroccan woman imitating a foreign YouTube format.

The video shows the woman, wearing a very short skirt, talking to four young men behind a white curtain. At first only their shoes are visible, but when the curtain rises, their other clothes are visible as well. The woman asks questions to choose one of them for a date, rejecting the men one by one, until finally a dog chooses the “knight of her dreams.”
