The questionnaires were completed by 170 jurists and 480 from the society. 48 % of the jurists, 71 % of the ones from the society and 65 % in general, agree that the forced sexual intercourse in the marriage is a rape crime. As more than the half of the participants have agreement, marital rape should be seriously discussed to be reserved in Turkish laws as a rape crime.
