ion Gaining importance, violence is a personal, societal and social problem that is progressively receiving more media coverage. The violence particularly faced by women, be it domestic or social one, through utterances, expressions and language use is unfortunately at the heart of life. These actions which are apparently against the women but have also an impact on the society alienate the family members from each other, impeding psychological and social life, and thus, inflict a deep wound in society as the family is the first social environment where the feelings are expressed. In particular, " verbal abuse " that is different from " physical abuse " never skips anybody it reaches. 1 Such attitude and behaviours casting supporting roles to supplement men through intimidating women and destroying their independent characters result in women getting used to the incidents and coming to terms with the defamation which is in fact a crime. Right at this point, this study aims to examine the place of language and verbal attitude in such behaviours that suppress women and increase the risk of violence, in context of the defamation laws governed in Turkish Criminal Law.

HUMANISMA : Journal of Gender Studies
Language and media are effective entities to perpetuate male domination over women. Both are representations of various social conflicts, interests, power and hegemony. Through Psychological analysis, this study aims to reveal how both of them can establish the process of 'marginalizing' women. This study used a qualitative method with a literature review approach. The results showed that violence against women in language and the media is an invisible form of violence. Language is something that has a purpose (teleology) in itself, which is conditioned by various environmental interests. In patriarchal culture, language is used to build a bad image of women with the aim of strengthening the position of men as the dominant group. The bad image is then transplanted by the media, made into a universe of discourse and implanted into collective consciousness as the public's subconscious imagination. As a result, whether we realize it or not, women are treated in a subordinat...

Anger is the most tempted expression among other emotions. For this reason, expressing anger is possibly uttered by almost every person at least once in a lifetime, without any boundaries or limitations, to anyone as they wish. There are so many aspects of anger that we can analyze deeper by using some points of view: psychology, biology and even linguistics. In linguistics itself, the existence of anger in fact cannot be separated from the relation of language with other aspects. People will not be possibly angry for themselves without any trigger, interlocutor and other social environments. Hence, it is interesting to discuss the influences of social environments in expressing anger. The data were gathered from university students in Yogyakarta by using questionnaire as data collecting method. The gathered data were then analyzed and presented in order to make a qualitative result as data analyzing method. The result shows that social distance (intimacy) and participant (gender and age) of the respondents play significant role in deciding and determining their anger expression.
