Özet
Every nation has its cultural codes that are present in their social lives. These codes have hidden functions that manipulate and manage social perception since the earliest times. Every product that belongs to the field of study of folklore actually is about the nation; reflects the gaze of life, perception, philosophy, belief, music, sense of aesthetics, and total cultural codes. However, it is thought that proverbs, the product of oral literature, have a more prominent function in relation to the influence of social identity construction and social perception than the others do. Proverbs that turned over into the experiences that have occurred since ancient times, came up bearing profit of the socio-cultural environment and acting as reflecting social psychology in which the ancestors lived. Due to this reason, in the study, a topic with a focus on 'women' and 'women's perception' was chosen among the many points on which the proverbs can be examined. Thus, in Turkish culture, girls (virginity) and female perception are always present in the adventure of transition from a matriarchal structure to a patriarchal structure. The woman's position and the woman's perception have changed in the social life and this evolution has also effected the proverbs. From this point of view starting from the earliest sources, the proverbial books, compilation literature was reviewed and proverbs related to the topic were determined. In the study, all the obtained data were evaluated on the basis of ' social memory' - 'cultural memory' and it was attempted to examine how the messages carried by the proverbs affect the consciousness of the society in the development of girl-women identity.
