OC: Frustrated by their lack of marriage prospects, a group of single men in the Turkish village of Uzumlu have taken to the streets in protest.
The women of the remote village are apparently refusing to accept any marriage proposals made by the men because they do not want to be trapped there forever. And the men think they’re being ridiculous.
The last wedding in Uzumlu took place nine years ago, and since then the population of the village has dwindled from 400 to 233. read more
Come on ladies, don’t playa hate.
Definitely the move of an alpha male-that’ll have the girls swooning for sure because nothing gives a woman that tingling feeling, you know where, like men(?) protesting.
No fucking wonder they want to get out of town.
The Muslim ladies wising up?
If no hubby, he can’t beat them.
Turk Jerks.
I wasn’t aware that goats had the “right” of refusal …

Just wow. Really. Look at the people in the back of the protest march. These guys are so lame, they couldn’t stage a protest without their moms. OR — their mothers made them do this.
Paraphrasing: “The women move away for better prospects, the men stay behind to manage inherited land.” Hasn’t every society dealt with this? These obviously wealthy landowners with solid family values (says mom) can’t lie enough to trick Russian mail-order brides or Syrian refugees into visiting exotic Turkey? I bet they’d jump at the chance to pump out three kids for the Prime Minister too — win win!
Some pretty brave pre-teen girls they have in that village.
