@mutesi_lydie @ElPresidente044 None c ko mbona ubabajwe n‘ indero nahawe nkaho wowe haricyo undushije mugisubizo umpaye. Hypocrisy n’ ubwirasi mugendana nibyo bituma mwumva muri hejuru yabandi mukoresha „umuco“. Sinagusabye kunsobanurira uko nkwiriye kwitwara, Gerageza wongera usome haruguru kandi unashishoze!

@FelixMugenzi Amayugi c ni itegeko kuyambara muri concert? Performative outrage gusa🚮

[Francis Shema @FrancisShema11]

@y93534 @NgerukaChelsea You might be dense ngl, but just in case, RIB should keep tabs on you because the saxophones indicate you are a potential danger to women🚮

@FraKamaliza @Bxnonz You tell me? What conclusions may follow from a 64% majority of women not standing against laws or actions that target womens clothing in big 2026?

[Francis Shema @FrancisShema11]

@FraKamaliza @Bxnonz That is the exacty the point!!! If we have equal inclusion of women in all those spots (sometimes majority), how is it they are sitting by when their fellow sisters are being policed on how to wear in big 2026? Hence the 64% upholding patriarchy point. You follow now?

[SARAH @TheMurungiSarah]

We are witnessing the dangers of this culture of not questioning authority. When said “authority” decides to abuse their power, where does that leave us?

[Francis Shema @FrancisShema11]

@FraKamaliza @Bxnonz Google def-“Patriarchy is a social system in which men hold primary power and dominate roles in political leadership, moral authority, social privilege, and control of property” as long as women believe that and are willing to act in its enforcement, they are also the patriarchy.

[Francis Shema @FrancisShema11]

@XandrineUmutoni It seems to be the latter you are referencing, but then the major question is…When did we(as rwandans) collectively decide that post colonial rwandan culture is what we identify to and link to being Rwandan?

[Francis Shema @FrancisShema11]

@XandrineUmutoni “But modernity does not have to mean cultural erasure.” Hon. Minister, what culture is being erased by modernity? Is it the Inshabure culture during the kingdom of Rwanda? or is it the post colonial rwandan culture of modesty as a result of religion?

[Francis Shema @FrancisShema11]

@js7ycwrfks @Bxnonz Exactly!!! I think people are barking at the wrong tree😂

[Francis Shema @FrancisShema11]

@FraKamaliza @Bxnonz The patriachy is not only upheld by men btw. It is infact the patriachal princesses who turn a blind eye to their sisters and keep it active longer than it should.

[GŸSLÁIN @hishignesss]

This whole situation shouldn’t even be a cultural or fashion issue. Before all that it should be a legal matter when did our parliament pass this bill for the police to enforce it? who sets the standard if there is any? Is this the biggest fish to fry in our 26338 km lovely home?

[Francis Shema @FrancisShema11]

@berabose_ Bamuhembe rwose yahebuje abagore bose😂. This is the mentality of the 64% for those who were wondering🤦🏾‍♂️

[Francis Shema @FrancisShema11]

Until we understand that, Ubumwe stays a horizon we keep sailing toward but never quite arrive at.

[Francis Shema @FrancisShema11]

Policing how women dress at concerts has nothing to do with what should be our collective goal as Rwandans: coexisting in unity, harmony, and developing together, leaving no one behind. All it does is enforce one group's religious beliefs or narrow understanding of culture.

[Ange Aïsha @Karamenyabu]

The police is threatening to beat women if they don't go back home to "dress" up. They've decided to use violence to control women's bodies. Harazamo nigiti they say.

[Francis Shema @FrancisShema11]

All it always does is find a minority to ostracize over trivial matters that pose no threat to the collective, like how people choose to dress, and that risks violence against the very people the law(meant to protect the collective identity) should be safeguarding.
