The current study aims to explore the perceived discrimination among three women groups in Türkiye: Muslims, Muslim feminists, and feminists. Four hundred fifteen women aged 18-76 (M = 40.6, SD = 16.5) participated in the study. The sample included 177 Muslim women, 92 Muslim feminists, and 146 feminist women. We found significant differences in perceived individual and group discrimination in three women groups. While at the individual level, all groups differed from each other, at the group level discrimination, self-labeling feminists did not differ, yet Muslim women perceived the lower levels of discrimination. Feminists indicated experiencing discrimination mostly from their close ones and outgroups/others. At the same time, Muslim women specified discrimination mostly from religious people, and Muslim feminist women indicated discrimination mostly from outgroups/others and school/work environments. The findings were discussed in terms of the literature on the subject. Future research is encouraged on the authentic identities of women in Türkiye and their discrimination experiences.

Bu çalışma, Türkiye'deki üç kadın grubu arasında algılanan ayrımcılığı araştırmayı amaçlamaktadır: Müslümanlar, Müslüman feministler ve feministler. Çalışmaya 18-76 yaş aralığında (M = 40.6, SD = 16.5) dört yüz on beş kadın katılmıştır. Örneklemde 177 Müslüman kadın, 92 Müslüman feminist kadın ve 146 feminist kadın yer almıştır. Üç kadın grubunda da algılanan bireysel ve grup ayrımcılığında önemli farklılıklar bulunmuştur. Bireysel düzeyde tüm gruplar birbirlerinden farklılaşırken, grup düzeyinde ayrımcılıkta kendini feminist olarak etiketleyenler farklılaşmamış, ancak Müslüman kadınlar daha düşük düzeyde ayrımcılık algılamıştır. Feministler en çok yakınlarından ve dış gruplardan/diğerlerinden ayrımcılığa uğradıklarını belirtirken, Müslüman kadınlar en çok dindarlardan, Müslüman feminist kadınlar ise en çok dış gruplardan/diğerlerinden ve okul/iş ortamlarından ayrımcılığa uğradıklarını belirtmişlerdir. Bulgular konuyla ilgili literatür açısından tartışılmıştır. Türkiye’deki kadınların otantik kimlikleri ve ayrımcılık deneyimleri üzerine gelecekteki araştırmalar teşvik edilmektedir.
