Say what?? the deputy president of turkey says women should not laugh in public, wow!!!! thats a serious one o!
Read more on his reasons and other things he said women should not do after the cut
The Turkish deputy Prime Minister sparked outrage today by telling women they shouldn’t “laugh in public”.
Bulent Arinc also insisted women must not use mobile phones to discuss cooking recipes.
His comments were widely ridiculed on social media websites.
He was speaking at a meeting in Turkey in which he complained of the “moral corruption” in his country.
He said women must not “laugh in public …. where are our girls, who slightly blush, lower their heads and turn their eyes away when we look at their face, becoming the symbol of chastity?”
Arinc also complained about the number of cars and mobile phones that individuals have.
Focusing on women once more, Arinc said women talk about unnecessary things on the phone.
“Women give each other meal recipes while speaking on the mobile phone. ‘What else is going on?’ ‘What happened to Ayse’s daughter?’ ‘When is the wedding?’ Talk about this face to face,” he said.
Ekmeleddin Ihsanoglu, who is running for the presidency against Arinc’s boss, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan, commented on Arinc’s statement on Twitter.
He said Turkey needed women to laugh - and to hear everybody’s happy laughter - more than anything else.
Women also took to Twitter to poke fun at his remarks.
