Girls of the week are Turkish women against "shotgun marriage"
After fighting against the Kurds and arresting Haftar in Libya, Recep Tayyip Erdogan felt powerful enough to do what he wanted in his country.
Marry your rapist. This is the summary of the shotgun marriage bill.
According to the proposal, those accused of sexual abuse can be exonerated by marrying their victim.
Just hearing about it, the republicans present at the "Ankara assembly, began to sing the protest song of the Chilean women"El violador eres tu':
In short, a marriage between victim and executioner will be enough to heal the wound of abuse, according to the Turkish government, as long as there are no more than 10 years of age difference between the two parties.
A shameful and terrible proposal, that of forcing a victim of abuse to marry her assailant.
According to "Let's Stop Femicides", an association that protects women's rights in Turkey, cases of violence in their country are on the rise.
38% of Turkish women have been sexually abused and the number of child brides rises to half a million. A fact that is not only frightening but also hidden by the fact that in the most rural areas of the country, weddings take place only in front of religious authorities.
A terrible abuse for Turkish women, who at this point in history should be completely free and on a par with male citizens and who instead find themselves fighting against all these forms of abuse. At home, on the street and even in parliament.
