Women are not just shadows of men: Unfortunately women are suffering maybe the most difficult times in todays so-called modern Turkey. Because they are:
- beaten up by their husbands
- being murdered
- being submitted to honour killings
- being raped
- deprived from education rights
- sexually harassed
- discriminated
and they are condemned to stay under the shadow of men just because they are Women.
