"content": "Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I will pick it up from where Sen. Poghisio has left on the whole issue of looking at Rwanda‘s culture and wondering what sort of dynamics have happened there. We need to ask ourselves very soul searching questions and look at deep historical issues. We should ask ourselves questions about how Rwanda got there. Did they get there because they learnt to respect women more, may be, because the war left many men dead and so there were many mother figures in the society? Is it because somewhere along the line they got tired of the gender divide? If we do not do that, we will miss a very important research question in understanding the dynamics of the wars between the men and women. If you think about it, men and women live together. We have brothers and sisters who also have fathers and brothers. On many issues, there is no divergence. They sit and eat together. However, when it comes to the issue of materialism and leadership that is where the battles begin. When people talk about inheritance, looking for various provisions and wealth, that is where the division begins. That is where the violence comes in."
