Abstract :The issue of female interpreting is underresearched in literature. Of the limited studies, there are some studies which focus on one linguistic aspect of the female interpreters as well those which focus on a nonlinguistic aspect in comparison to male interpreters. This study aims to give an overall view on how they appear in media and scientific articles. It was conducted on the basis of an analysis of the hits of some keywords: gender, interpreting, female interpreting, female interpreters and their Turkish counterparts. As a result of the study, these traits are identified as linguistic traits, physical traits and identity, elegance as part of stance and the same-gender advantage. They collectively show that the established prejudices against women prevail. The specified classifications made for the purposes of this study are primarily for ease of analysis, and surely open to new items to be added by the further developments in the sociological climate accompanied by resultant scholarly studies.Keywords : Kadın çevirmen, sözlü çeviri eylemi, toplumsal cinsiyet
