Anyway, the original issue was the rules that concern Islamic clothing in secular Turkey. We can discuss these issues and say our opinions but after all it´s for the Turks to decide what is good for them, now and in the future.

 

Religion should be kept in churches, mosques and temples, it does not have it´s place in the government, religion is personal to the one praticing it.

Do we want to return to a time where religions ruled?

General Assembly following the June 12 elections due to regulations requiring women to wear skirts.
The bill, which amends Parliament’s internal regulations and will take effect after approval in the General Assembly, gives female lawmakers and clerks the option to wear tailored skirts and pantsuits. It also replaces the term “ladies” with “women,” which is more commonly used in legislation.

and it took until 2011 for women to be able to wear pants in parlement and to be called women instead of ladies?

Things happen with time. When I was in school (not so long ago haha) we had to petition to be able to change the rules to allow girls to wear trousers instead of skirts which was the rules at time.
