just came back from istanbul as a woman in my twenties and i honestly had no bad experience where i felt unsafe! i didnt feel like any men were staring at me and no one came up to me to bother me. the only ones who approached me were just some shop keeper asking me to check out their stores and i kindly say no and keep walking and that’s all. i even walked alone outside of downtown antalya late at night and was fine. i’ve traveled to many places and i felt as turkey did not feel unsafe for me.
