I was stationed with the US Army just outside of Istanbul. Most young Turkish men dabble in homosexuality as a release. Islam is such a sexually repressive ideology that they end up that way. Multiple times a local asked me how I dealt with "it". I had a Persian/American buddy in the national guard that experienced the same thing in Iraq. Because he could speak Farsi he became a trainer for Iraqi Army guys from Shiia areas. He said he was constantly refusing sexual advances from the young men. Those Turkish girls were throwing themselves at me, as long as I married them. Yeah....NO! Even as a dumb 18 year old I knew I was better off saving me money, biting the bullet, and getting some with my girlfriends back in the hometown on leave.
