Kadınca was a women's magazine published in Istanbul, Turkey, between 1978 and 1998. It played an important role for Turkish feminist movement. It was the first popular feminist women's magazine of the Republic of Turkey.
Kadınca was established in 1978. The first issue was published in December 1978. The founder and launch editor-in-chief was Turkish journalist Duygu Asena.
The target audience of Kadınca was Turkish women between the ages of 20–30 from middle and lower middle classes. Over time the magazine became one of the most significant supporting media outlet for feminist movement in Turkey. The magazine argued that women should have economic independence and have equal rights in society and in marriage. In 1998 Kadınca folded due to financial causes.
