La percentuale di donne che indossano il velo all’aperto regolarmente, per regione in Turchia

Greek influence in the legendary straits and the civilised Izmir cannot be genocided!!!! My best wishes to our neighbours, yeah I know I started very tacky

Maybe they’ve clarified it in the paper but I feel like they didn’t differentiate between the traditional headscarves and religious ones like turban. Most women in the rural areas use headscarves, sometimes it doesn’t fully cover the hairn. Eastern region makes sense for cities like Urfa, Antep, Maraş etc. but I still think 78% is too high, even considering Kurds are mostly much more conservative.

35 provinces and 2000 people is a small sample size imo, especially considering there are 81 provinces and close to 90 million people in Turkey.

Edit: I’ve checked the author, few people claimed he’s an islamist and his papers are mostly around religion, secularism. I’m not saying he’s an islamist, I won’t read 500 pages long research he made on Said Nursi to come to a conclusion, but I’d take these stats with a grain of salt. If he was secular he’d also mostly skew the results towards the lower numbers. I don’t trust most of the statistics around topics like these.

This map is absolutely unnecessary and shows nothing. They wear headscarves in Ukraine and Russia as well, it’s neither a Muslim thing or shows about the Islamic side of Turkey. So at this point it’s a cloth that people like to wear on their heads and might as well make a map of men who likes to wear hats lol.

Make a map with the percentages of hijab (or “turban” as they call it in Turkey) wearing women in Turkey, that’s the thing that you’re wondering about.

should be accompanied by illiteracy and poverty level maps

I assumed all non Kurdish areas of Turkey would be less than 25% tbh.

Wow, I thought it was way lower, even in cities like Istanbul.

I run this research through chat gpt to find out what is wrong so don’t take my full word as source of truth so here it is;

1. the statistics here include even people who only wear scarfs at prayers, funeral etc. Just looking at this weak spot in this research this map is meant to push an agenda.

2.The survey often provided neutral or middle options (such as “sometimes”, “neither agree nor disagree”, or “neither religious nor not religious”), but the report’s discussion frequently overlooks these responses.

3. It’s skewed in favor of his biased narrative.

I did this because we are in a big brother scenario, everything works against us and everything is corrupt not just the politicians, our society favors corruption, almost everyone that are in any industry doesn’t deserve to be there because they got there with help of a relative or closed one, one way or another. These people repeat the same corruption that put them there and continue the cycle. I cannot write down what I feel about our society in words as I am not qualified to be able to assess it correctly, but I can vouch for how fucked up it is.

Well I live in İstanbul and the map would suggest 1 out of 3 women I see wear a headcarve, which is definitely not the case. The sample size is too low and the map is inaccurate, at least for the places that I lived in (İstanbul and the Mediterranean coast)

this map is just ridiculous

This is an incorrect map. Marmara University is an Islamist regime institute.

As usual anti islamic comments from nationalist and then they wonder why we lose elections
