Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan urged women to have at least three children and said having a career should not prevent them from “being around the house,” the Guardian reports.
“Rejecting motherhood means giving up on humanity,” Erdoğan said in a speech Sunday at the opening of a new building for the Turkish Women’s and Democracy Association. “The fact that a woman is attached to her professional life should not prevent her from being a mother.”
The Turkish president added: “A woman who rejects motherhood, who refrains from being around the house, however successful her working life is, is deficient, is incomplete.”
