 I had a talk about this just the other day! For me, sex is sex. There is no "kind of sex"... But a Muslim female friend of mine proudly states she wants to remain a virgin until she is married. But in my opinion she isn´t! She has done things that made my ears red when I heard it!

But how many Western woman want to keep virginity until marriage? It is not a shame at all. But I think it is non-sense that a relative can kill a woman with authorization, because she has enjoyed life previously... How can a patriarchal society be selfish? If she is not pregnant then how cares? And is it good for having a virgin bride instead of an "experienced" one? Maybe this will save their marriage in the future... But I have forgotten divorce is not preferred either. :S

I read this article.  I have watched a film called Havar.  It´s set in Batman.  This film gives a good insight into what can happen when a young girl  is wrongly seen to be flirting with a man. It starts with old women gossiping about the girl and in the end; tragic for the girl!! Its wrong and shows up the ignorance and lack of education among some people in the southeast.  I hope that this will be stopped someday and the authorities are able to take more control of the situation. These young girls need protection and more people fighting on their behalf!!

To put the record straight, firstly you should have to mention that it was not Turks who feel Kurds were not the part of the country but the Kurds themselves. As you see it is not like you try to describe. Besides things changed very quickly by today´s government, hostility grew up, its not suprising to see many separatist Turks who do not want to live with Kurds and who oppose to Kurdification nowadays. For instance, Kurds are not much welcomed anymore in east black sea region...

To put the record straight, the Kurds form a considerable percentage of the population of this country. Therefore all their values, traditions, economic stati etc add up to the overall outlook of the entire nation. They are a part of this country hence a part of our collective identity.

The problem is that they do not want to be called Turk or Turkish citizen except they did something bad Wink

 They are therefor Turks, if those Greek and Armenian decendents are also Turks.

I don´t have the source for it but I remember reading Batman has the highest young women suicide rates in the world. Of course how many of those are real suicides and how many are forced suicides/honor killings, God knows.

I read this a while ago it was published in 2006.  My boyfriend is from Batman so I tried to learn as much about the place as possible.  Trudy also put up this link in another thread, http://www.channel4.com/programmes/unreported-world/episode-guide/series-2009/episode-3

I think this is the same one I watched a few months ago, couldn´t bring myself to watch it again to check, if it is, Batman is also featured.  They mention that Batman has been nicknamed suicide city because of the unbelievably high rates of ´suicide´ among young women/girls
