Even though many Turks like to think of/portray their country as much more liberal and Westernised than most other Islamic countries, and I myself used to believe it, especially after visiting Istanbul (I saw rather fewer women wearing hijabs there than in many British cities), much of this is gradually being reversed under Erdogan's regime, which at different points has even tried to ban adultery and alcohol. More generally, various global surveys show that Turks' attitudes towards religion and sexuality are rather more similar to Pakistanis than to Greeks or any other European country, hence why I ask the question.
