i've also heard that turkey is SO eclectic now, because of all of the different influences. perhaps that is another reason women do not have to wear hijab in public.
absolutely, Especially in Istanbul and larger cities, very cosmopolitan, women who wear it are very religious..... at the Aegean we saw a few women swimming in full wear...... they actually make "bathing suits"interesting,,,,, I think I have a pic somewhere......

If you are interested, there is a very good book called Snow by Orhan Paumk about the Turkish feelings about the scarf.....
