Abstract :This research embarks on a complicated journey to uncover the gender within the institution of Turkish marriage, focusing on the linguistic manifestations of discrimination against women. Through critical analysis of conversations between married individuals, the study seeks to illuminate how marital dialogs not only share everyday experiences, but also uphold, challenge, or change deeply rooted social norms and prejudices. Participants were tasked with delineating perceived gender roles within marital boundaries. Their responses, juxtaposed with the recorded conversations of 10 married couples — all from the researcher’s immediate circle — offer a multi-layered insight into the implicit biases and potential microaggressions inherent in everyday interactions. This methodological choice was anchored in the belief that genuine dialogs from familiar contexts would reveal both overt and covert forms of gender discrimination. By analyzing these recordings, the study aims to identify overarching characteristics and differences in the conversational styles of men and women. Preliminary findings suggest that linguistic markers may unintentionally perpetuate traditional gender roles and biases, underscoring subtle but persistent mechanisms of discrimination against women in Turkish society. Through this research, we aim to shed light on the deeper linguistic structures at play and their implications for broader social change.
