no the response from her was pathetic and childish. I am just showing that any bad news can be found if you want to find it and really this is not about turkish culture most turks already know this news as it is in their papers so why share with casual people who just want to learn about culture and language

If you don´t get that, I´m not going to explain. 

So, you found several articles about sex-related crimes in my country. That´s bad yes, but I never said they won´t occur here nor that my country/countrymen are so great/the greatest. Satisfied now?

well trudy I am surprised they do happen considering your country has all those prostitutes lined up for the taking - what is the legal age there for sex 14?

oh my mistake  I just found this

The Netherlands

Partij voor Naastenliefde, Vrijheid en Diversiteit (Party for Neighbourly Love, Freedom, and Diversity) is a Dutch political party founded in 2006.^[28] The party currently has no parliamentary representation and did not receive enough signatures to partake in the 2006 elections.^[29]

The PNVD seeks to have the legal age-of-consent lowered to 12, and, in the long run, completely eliminated, except in dependent or intrafamilial relationships. They also aim to equalize the legal age where one can perform in pornography with the legal age-of-consent.^[30]

The former Dutch Pacifist Socialist Party also supported the lowering of the age of consent to 12.^[31]

now if you want people to make their opinions about your country by the news I just posted than ok they can.

this is my point - dont bring the shit unless you are willing to shovel yourself

And the last time you read a recent newspaper was in 1875?

Posting about sex abuse makes me ´a cougar on the prowl´? 

I´m amazed that you seem to know so much about me/my personality based on one posting you disapproved of. Kudos. 

Awwww.. I´m amazed at your ´mature´ response! Nobody said that this sort of crimes dont occur everywhere, but it´s exactly this kind of medieval attitude that allows such things to continue. We don´t have to talk about Dutch criminals here, and if you feel like there needs to be more positive news, you´re free to post them! But to say that someone cannot post negative news is simply sick.

Shame on you as a forum moderator and ruler of this site for you to constantly sling your verbatim garbage only for the sake of protecting your friend. If this is your approach wtf are you a moderator here?

"medieval attitude" " turkish attitude" in early comment you have to be joking. I can ascertain that to comment on anyone´s narrow-minded back-assward approach to this subject is futile because some people just don´t get it they cannot understand whether it is because of them lacking to remove their head from their (glorious cheeks god has given them)

My suggestion is please give us some good news about accomplishments from the young people in Turkey. We all know perverts exist in every country and we all know about war, history of war feel the effect of this, including the people who walk on the dark side of the street. Just add some good with the bad try to balance it out instead of throwing two detrimental news articles up one after another.

(We can only control our own little corner of the world, and seeing others worse off makes us feel safer. ) and from my understanding Trudy does not live there.

very dissappointed.......... meh

see you edited out the statement about having turkish mentality  part how nice of you to do this after the fact

I saved it for you catwoman this is what you said :

 

What a weird mentality! What a reply to the post! {#emotions_dlg.you_crazy} Can only be Turkish I guess.

 

Spritzer, Trudy can post whatever news she wants. If you want to post articles about how great gender relations are in Turkey, you are free to do so.

Shame on you

and a racist remark so tell me why are you moderator again....

 Maybe it would be interesting for you to know about what was our PM´s reaction over that "rape allegation". He was on TV on teusday night and angrily said, " why are you (media) making it a current issue which is something happened a year ago!?!". The same approach as yours.

 I, too, noticed that...but didn´t save...because I didn´t know it was to be deleted later...But, haha! I haven´t yet made my decision about whether I should be offended or proud of  "having a weird mentality".
