Sahin seems to be sending a clear and deliberate message to her conservative Turkish family, "I did it because I wanted to be free at last. These photographs are a liberation from the restrictions of my childhood," she reportedly told the media.
Sahin's declared intention was to use the controversial Playboy photoshoot as a call to action for other Turkish girls who suffer because women' choices are often limited, husbands are chosen for the girls and chastity closely controlled.

Despite her bold move, though, Sahin wants her family forgiveness, "I hope you can forgive me. Please let me come home," she said in an emotional TV interview.
