This is a cultural study that tries to understand the sexual identity of women trying to be represented on television series in Turkey. Two television serials “Fatmagülün Suçu Ne?” and “Hayat Devam Ediyor” are selected as case studies. The two main characters “Fatmagül” and “Hayat” are analyzed in both television serials. The main research question presented in the thesis, “With a particular focus on gender representation, how are the issues of rape and extra-marital sex addressed in the Turkish television serials “Hayat Devam diyor” and “Fatmagül’ün suçu ne?” The particular of representation of gender sexuality is in the traditional and social sphere. The theoretical framework is mainly based on theories based on “Feminism” with a focus on “Radical Feminism” and “Patriarchy”. The main methodological framework used is “critical discourse analysis”. The findings in the thesis through the analysis of episodes dealing with rape and pre-marital sexuality the representations of the main female characters are more negatively in their social spheres. They are excluded from society and represented as the second-class citizen. With this study my aim is to look into the relationship of representations of gender, which will bring more attention to the sensitive topics of oppression of gender sexuality and the representation through gendered realities in the television serials. iii Table of Contents 1-Introduction…………………………………………………………………….....…1 1.1-Research Question……………………………………………………………........3 1.2-The structure of the Thesis………………………………………………….......….3 1.3-The Significance of the Study………………………………………………......…4 2-Background…………………………………………………………………….........5 2.1-Broadcasting in National Television.....……………………………………….......5 2.2-Broadcasting in Turkish Television…………………………………………..........5 2.3-Development of Turkish Television serials…………………………………..........8 2.3.1-The Emergence of Television serials in Turkey…………………………........…8 2.3.2-Attributes of Television Serials Today……………………………………........13 2.4 -The Images of Women in Turkish Television Serials…………………….....…..16 2.4.1-An Outline on Female Characters of Today’s Prominent Turkish Television Serials…………………………………………………………………………….......23 2.4.1.1-Plot Summeries for “Fatamugülün Suçu Ne?”…………………………….....24 2.4.1.2-Plot Summeries for“Hayat Devam Ediyor”……………….............................25 3- Theory…………………………………………………………………………......27 3.1-Description of the Main Assumptions and Relevant Theories………………......27 3.1.1-Gender Roles……………………………………………………………....…..29 3.1.2-Understanding the basis of Feminism…………………………………….....…30 3.1.2.1-Defining Feminism as a term…………………………………………….......30 3.2- Definition of Radical Feminism…………………………………………............34 3.2.1-The Public and Private Divide…………………….…………………………...37 3.2.2- The Theory of Patriarchy ………..……………………………………....…....38 3.2.3 -Gender System Theory………..........................................................................39 3.2.3.1-The Pattern of Segregation …………………………………………….....….40 3.2.4-Theories regarding Equality/Difference....…………………………………….41 3.3- Gender Representation in the Media…………………………………………….44 3.3.1-Gender and Sexuality in the Media…………………………………………….46 3.4-Patriarchy in Feminism…………………………………………………………..47 3.4.1-Radical Feminism in Patriarchy ……………………………………………….48 3.5-Muted Group Theory………………………………………………………….....49 3.6-Conclusion…………………………………………………………………....….52 4-Methodology………………………………………………………………...…….55 iv 4.1-The Focus of the study..........................................................................................55 4.2- Content Analysis…………………………………………………………….....56 4.2.1-Critical Discourse Analysis………………………………………………..….57 4.3-The Description of the Data Collection Process……………………………..…58 4.3.1-The analytical methodology: Content Analysis and Critical Discourse Analysis………………………………………………………………………………59 4.3.1.1 -First level of Analysis……………………………………………………….60 4.3.1.2 -Second Step Analysis…………………………………………………….....60 4.3.1.3-Third level of Analysis(In-Depth Analysis)…………………………………61 4.3.2 -The Presentation of the Data………………………………………………….62 4.4 -The Limitations of the methodology…………………………………………....62 4.5-The justification of Research Methodology……………………………………..63 5 -Analysis and Results……………………………………………………………...65 5.1-General Information about the Television Serials……………………………....65 5.1.1-The List of Characters in the television serials………………………………..66 5.1.2-General Attributes of the two main female characters: Fatmagül and Hayat………………………………………………………………………………. .69 5.2-Presentation of Critical Discourse Analysis…………………………………….71 5.2.1-Analysis of Fatmagülün Suçu Ne?

Televizyon sektöründe, bu tür programlar süreklilik gösterir şekilde yayınlanmaktadır. Televizyonların, yayın dönemlerinde yeni programlara yer verip bu tür programları finanse ettiği bilinmektedir. Bu çalışmada, reality show programlarının biçim ve içerik açısından özellikleri ve bu tür programların izlenme nedenleri ele alınacaktır. İzleyici kitlenin yoğun olduğu bu program türlerinin, neden tercih edildiği bu çalışmanın ana sorunsalıdır. Bu bağlamda; reality show programının alt türü olan yetenek showların, tercih edilme sebeplerinin analizi yapılacaktır. “O Ses Türkiye” adlı yetenek show programı, izlenme oranı açısından başarılı bir örnek olarak adlandırılmakta ve bu nedenle örneklem olarak bu çalışmada incelenmektedir. Steven Reiss, reality programların izleme profilini sunan 16 temel arzu teorisini ortaya koymuştur ve bu teori çalışmanın temelini oluşturmaktadır. Reiss’in 16 temel arzu teorisi ile bir yetenek show örneği olan “O Ses Türkiye” adlı programının izlenmesi arasındaki ilişkiselliğin, izleyiciler tarafından neden tercih edildiğinin analizi yapılacaktır. “O Ses Türkiye”
