Thanks very much for this information. We appreciate your honesty. I found most of it to be true with my turkish husband although he was very good to me until Canada refused the visa he wanted. Then i saw everything you're saying to be true. Such a shame. it must be very difficult to be a Turkish woman in Turkey, particularly if you're educated. I've read about the abuse of women there. I greatly admire the independent, strong Turkish women i know at the istanbul bar association - they are truly brave to try to change things for women.
