I don't get whta is the point of the film?
I agree - the first part is about anatolian women and the clohts they are wearing are turkish not muslim, and that is true that aome turkish women look really fashionable is scarfs on their heads - but what is the connetcion between tose two parts of the film and Karadenizli ( I guess) slogans in it????

You got it right. The video doesn't necessarily have to make sense to you.

Ok, it doesn't to me either. Of course I don't have a problem with that, except I wish that the cultural value was communicated to me. As it is, it just shows me that women in Anatolia are all confined to homes and covered up, which only reinforces the stereotypes. This does not take away from those women, they definitely have difficult lives and work very hard. Too bad they weren't given an opportunity for better lives.
I don't like however what it shows about Turkish culture and I hope that that's not completely how things are in reality.

Why do you always ask me such strange questions qdemir? Since when are you interested in the situation of women in Poland or are you again trying to attack me because I said something you didn't like? Whatever!

Why do you avoid his question? You have lots to say about women in Turkey, but is it all peaches and cream for Polish women then?

Sorry to interfere but if one is only allowed to say something about others if everything is 'peaches and cream' in their own country/situation, then I think everyone should stop talking.
