Before Islam, the formation of the family in Turks was realized through marriage, a social duty, and celibacy was a shame. In these periods, the marriage type was monogamous and polygamous marriage was rarely seen and this was seen among the managers. The khans, who were the state administrators, had more than one marriage, and the first of the wives of the khans was seen as the first women. The fellow wife, who is in a second position, is quite different from the first woman. The participation of the fellow wife in the family was not like a wife, but in the style of the first wife’s sister, and the children of the fellow wife could not get a share of their father's wealth. We can see that the “fellow wife” phenomenon, which has started from ancient Turkish societies to the present day, has decreased compared to the old times due to both social reservations and the psychological effects of the situation. Among the reasons of the fellow wife; economic reasons, lack of ownership, helplessness, poverty, having a large population, indispensable desires in the desire of boys and increasing the number of employees in the family. The effects of these causes and their consequences on individuals were considered worthy of study by us. In our study, which is based on fieldwork, the concept of “fellow wife” will be evaluated from the eyes of women with various questions to be asked to the wife and first wife to determine their moods, their views on marriage, questioning their own values, their place and status in society, their value in the family and their reflections on their psychology.In this context, this article shall firstly focus on the arguments of Marxist and radical feminists on the sameness and the difference, especially in the second wave. Second, the question of gender and identity of the third wave feminism shall be discussed. This comparison of ideas and the suggested arguments shall show us how/where we should see multiple inequalities with the intersectionality theory. Moreover, with the perspective of intersectionality this comparision shall allow us to analyze the analytical axes in which the differences cause inequality. In addition, the specifity of the article is that it reconsiders the concept of neo-racism with intersectionality and reveals the multifaced categories and differences that cause inequality. Eventually, the main purpose of the article is to explain intersectionality in parallel with its theoretical development, to explore its academic fuctionality of the theory and to expound inequalities, categories and their social, cultural and political results in different empirical cases and levels.
