Women...

Welcome to the always sunny and extremely superstitious Turkey. This country is famous not only for its crystal clear waters and white sands, handsome and rich men, but also for their perception of a woman. With flow of history, the role of women in Turkey was constantly changing and developing; as a result, a lot of superstitions appeared where woman is the main character, usually negative one.

 If you are planning to visit Turkey one day, just remember a few most interesting beliefs:

•   If you are walking along the street, never walk in between two women as you will lose your beard very soon (unless you are the woman with beard and want to get rid of it);
•   If a woman passes in front of a man, it is for bad luck;
•   If a woman passes in front of a hunter, the hunt will be unsuccessful;
•   If a woman drinks only the half of her cup of tea, she will become a widow very soon;
•   If a young woman wears or simply tries on the ring of a married man, her marriage will be unhappy;
•   If a woman eats eggs while being pregnant, her future child will be very naughty;
•   If a pregnant woman is asking for something, her baby will resemble the man who helps her;
•   If a woman walks in between two men, she will become non-fertile;
•   A relative of a woman who sees penis in her dream will die;
•  A person who sees a girl child in his/her dream receives bad news.

I think you have already understood it is better not to pass in front of men, walk in between 2 people of the same gender, try somebody's rings and tell about your dreams. And always remember to drink your tea till the end.

I hope you found something new for you. See you next week in China.
