Quoting mltm:

What I oppose is, you use wrong words which shows that even the most modern in Turkey have village mentalities.



Is Turkey just Istanbul? Ankara? Correct me if I am wrong, but the majority of the population live in small towns and villages.

Why do you discount them - even worse, try to pretend they don't exist!! This "modern Turkey" you talk of will never happen until you accept that these "village mentalities" exist! It seems YOU are the one determined to bring shame to Turkey...

when you say small cities in Turkey, there are many cities who are bigger than most of the big cities in Europe. City is another thing, village is another thing. In modern Turkey, primitive village traditions should be eliminated. I respect the culture, but urbanization is another thing. Red ribbon that represents virginity?? If someone says that even the educated and cultured ones in cities do this, I oppose. Which educated? Please. I oppose when a Turk shows that Turkey highly consists of this backward things. She shows that she's "modern" and her family is "higly modern" but she's still a victim. Maybe, she can be a refrugee in another country if she thinks that even the modern in Turkey does this. This Turkey also consists of people who have opposed these things, that's what we call the modern Turkey. I do not look down on any village people, but what I oppose here is quite clear I think.

AND I won't say anything more about this, because this has started to go on my nerves. So much wrong generalizations. I wrote everything that should be written, the rest is yours. The one who is willing to understand will understand.

Being a "modern Turkish girl" does not mean denying truths! Asli was talking about something that happened when she was a little girl. She didn't say she agreed with it, she just told. Are you saying she is lying?

Your political fundamentalism astounds me! I had no idea people said such things as "I OPPOSE!" in this age! You are opposing because she told the truth, and you HATE IT??? This is sooo interesting...I suggest you use some of your amateur psychology on yourself!!!

I am witness to what Mltm is saying.

The whole thing is weird.

I would like to inform those who are confused about who talks the truth: Mltm speaks the truth here.

Quoting yilgun-7:

gönül isterdi ki, böyle önemli bir sorunu Türkçe olarak tartışalım ve bilimsel düzeyde konuşalım...
neden mi?
burası "Turkish Language Class"...
"English Language Class" değil..
öyle değil mi,
yanılıyorum mu?



Mistake? Oh no, I think you are mistaken. You came here to learn Turkish???? What possible other reason could you have for being here then?

What on earth are you talking about? Do you deny that other traditions and cultures exist in Turkey other than your own???

Who, exactly, is saying that Turkey "highly consists" of backward things?

I find your extremist views quite scary! You think this kind of attitude will bring change and make Turkey more modern? All you do is deny deny deny!

I lost my "courtesy" when Meltem told Asli that her story meant she had SHAMED all Turkey!

People are not ONLY here to learn Turkish language acually Yilgun, they are also here to learn of its culture and discuss things with others here. And, I repeat, the discussion forum language is ENGLISH.

A MORE IMPORTANT QUESTION is...what are YOU here for . To learn Turkish eh?
