Group demands 'male brothel' in Turkey
The Turkish anti-poverty association, ŞEFKAT-DER, filed a petition to Parliament on March 8 asking for permission to open a brothel for women that would employ males in protest of brothels where women are employed, Hurriyet reported.
ŞEFKAT-DER’s head Hayrettin Bulan said they will hold a protest in Istanbul’s Taksim Square on March 17 to demand a brothel employing men.
Bulan said they were told that men need access to brothels at all time. “If men have needs, women have needs too. If they see places where women are slaves for the men, then the places where men will work for the women should be opened too,” Bulan said.
