AT HOME WITH MAMA ?

AT HOME WITH MAMA ?

I chose this article because I  just saw something about italian people then I wanted to read it. But this article is about Italian men who would like to live with their families.  Despite these men are 34 years old, they contunie to live with their family. When others ask them the reason. They say that thanks to their family, they learn cooking well and getting good sense. Men are happy and comfortable because they do not have many responsibilities like paying bills, washing clothes, dealing with home problems. Mothers are happy,too. Because they  feel good for helping their sons.In the article ,there is an example italian boy for this topic. When the boy went to another place for universty, his mother still continue dealing with him.

Before I read this article, I had no idea about ''mamma's boy''  italian men.  I thought they re independent from their family. As soon as possible, I want to talk with Silvio and Giulio about these topic.

I want to share a picture about this topic. In Turkey, some men are really addicted to their mother. We call these men in Turkish ''Ana kuzusu''.

Vıolence against to women


I chose this video because this woman took a photo of her eveyday when she was with her boy friend to show his violence against to her. This is really dramatic video and show us violence clearly.


VIOLENCE AGAINST TO WOMEN

In my this writing, I want to mention domestic violence against women in Turkey and the reaction of Turkey for this issue.
I think this issue is one of the most important  important  problems of Turkey and domestic violence against women can be observed in many situation of today Turkey; however some parts of society  are conscious and react against this problem. Firstly, women generally lose their life or come to harm because of domestic violence. Honor crimes should be contextualized within the largest problem of violence against women in general. Women are killed by a member of her family , due to the belief of petrator that the  victim has brought dishonor upon the family or community. I think this is definitely unacceptable crime. For example : when I heard that a 19 year old girl was murdered by her brother after she dared to run away her boy friend,  I really shocked . Women are not only punished in the name of honor get killed but also they are encouraged to commit suicide to spare their brothers, fathers from prison.
 Another topic I want to mention is about reaction to this violence.  While this is terrible situation, there is also  a growing reaction to stop this  ignorance. Turkey government takes some cautions before beginning to take seriously the struggle to combat violence against women . Some campaign, writers, newspapers, political parties have effort to solve this problem.

This important  problem has to be solve as soon as possible. Otherwise violence against women will grow more that today in the future.
