People are putting huge words in their mouths "ISLAMIST! PROPAGANDA!" - are you even aware of the meaning of these harsh words? Maybe the current political situation in Turkey is making you jump at the slightest reminder of your cultural heritage but there's no reason to attack the rest of us who's more acceptive and appreciative of cultural differences.
What's the big harm in elder women in a village setting? They are an important part of Turkey's heritage and there's nothing suspecious about it.
This is just going way too far. If you're afraid of anyone slightly köylü then go around for crying out loud.
I for one have much respect for these women because of their obvious strength and knowledge on life.

I've just watched the video,and I quite liked the first part,showing traditional Turkish women in their dress,but it sort of got a bit weird in the middle showing women from Paris?or some other European capital,what was that all about?are they saying that the head-dress in Paris is available/wanted by the women of rural villages in Turkey?hahaha good one,or is it some poor attempt at showing the differences between a Republic and a Democracy?like they are botheredall a bit odd.
When the film changed in the middle I thought it was an advert for some small time Birmingham indian clothing boutique
I've been reading the posts and I can't see what all the fuss is about,so someone posts a badly edited political film to youtube and?There is a lot worse crap on youtube in my opinion.
Anyway I enjoyed the first bit they also look similar to the women in Chile and South America I wonder if there has been some social/cultural connection at some point in the past?
I think you are all nuts for trying to debate the bones off some little film clip
I might send one in showing factories pumping millions of litres of crap and chemicals into our seas and air,I wonder if that would get the same respect as this little clip?

qdemir - where did you find these statistics? I'd like to see how it was 20-30 years ago if there are any records of it

I canoot understand what are you talking about?
Do you know history?
Türkiye is the first country in the world to allow woman to vote in the the world history.
Anatolian Women have been electing prime minister, minister, deputy, governor, president of law court, general manager, director, professor...
They are engineer, doctor, teacher, expert, officer, merchant, businesswoman...and housewife...
