Unveiling Identity: The Politics of Wearing and Removing a Headscarf

In this episode of "Living in Your Feminine," we welcome Tuba Bozkurt, a prominent politician from the Greens, member of parliament, and active participant in the Women’s Equality Commission, who is dedicated to supporting women in the economy and fighting against discrimination. Tuba shares her personal journey and the profound impact of wearing and later removing a headscarf.
We explore how perceptions change based on outward appearance and the unique challenges women face in these situations. Tuba discusses how people see you differently as a woman with and without a headscarf, and how this extends into the political arena. We delve into how family, society, and politicians view women, and the distinct experiences faced in each context. Additionally, we examine the roles women are often expected to play and emphasize the freedom and empowerment found in rejecting these imposed roles. Join us for an insightful conversation about identity, perception, and the journey to authentic self-expression.
