Domestic violence OK sometimes: 34 percent of Turkish men



34 percent of Turkish men believe that violence against women is 'occasionally necessary,' with around 30 percent saying violence 'with a cause' is acceptable, according to a recent survey conducted in seven cities among 3,500 men

A total of 34 percent of men find violence "occasionally necessary," while 28 percent said violence could be used to discipline women, according to a nationwide survey conducted among 3,500 men by the Happy Kids Association (Mutlu Çocuklar Dernegi) and Kirikkale University’s Application and Research Center for Women’s Problems.




The survey, which was intended to identify the perceptions of men and women regarding violence in Turkey, is the first of its kind conducted on men, not women, Dolunay Senol, department chair for sociology at Kirikkale University, told Anatolia news agency yesterday.

A total of 7,000 people participated in the “Nationwide Survey on Violence against Women,” in which men and women over the age of 18 were interviewed to identify their perceptions about violence against women. The survey was carried out in Adana, Ankara, Istanbul, Izmir, Erzurum, Trabzon and Malatya, and each city was represented by 500 men and women.
