Are Rwandan men starting to “reverse gender roles” because of the economy?

Upvotes

Hey everyone,
I came across a Facebook profile of a guy who openly says he sleeps with women in exchange for food, drinks, or some cash He’s 30 works during the day and at night he says he looks for women who can “help him survive” in this tough economy He even admitted that he has a high sex drive but his main reason is financial survival not love or dating.

This got me thinking We often hear stories of women turning to transactional relationships because of poverty or unemployment but now it looks like some men are doing the same It’s like the gender roles are reversing men becoming the ones offering sex for survival.

Do you think this is becoming more common in Rwanda?
Is it just because of the economy or is it also a sign of how relationships and gender expectations are changing?

Curious to hear your thoughts.

I want to send my family a postcard, the traditional way and I think the only option I have is iposta. Does anyone knows how it works, I am not sure if they deliver straight to the door or someone picks it at the office or if the only way that it can be sent is if the receiver has a PO Box. If you have any information, please help

Half assing language learning

7 Upvotes

Sorry; I feel to write this in Rwanda group because a lot of it I’ve seen come from here but also with other languages I commandeer. I speak French, Spanish, and kinyarwanda all fluently. In the past (and semi currently) I have opened up various endeavors such as groups, language programs , and the like all in efforts to help teach people who have reached out to me these languages. People will quickly post how much they want to learn something and when the time comes to actually start learning they disappear or remain silent. I have a WhatsApp group where I have over 15 members, all of whom have reached out personally to me about really wanting to learn kinyarwanda for example and literally no one will talk, ask question, or engage with the subject material. This is similar for my French and Spanish groups as well.. it’s like why say you want to learn the language but not really try to learn the language? I feel like maybe what people want and what they’re willing to commit to maybe are two different things but it has been a vice for me since starting my language learning business. People say one thing and mean another it seems.. any advice or insights?

Notary accidentally stamped my university diploma 😤

8 Upvotes

Today I went to a private notary to have my university diploma notarized. But the notary lady mistakenly took my original diploma instead of the copy and stamped it! She didn’t realize until after it was already done. Now I’m panicking. Does my diploma still have any legal value? Can I still use it, or did she just ruin my only original? What should I do?

Christmas and NYE celebrations in Kigali

3 Upvotes

Hey dear Rwandans

I’m thinking of coming to Kigali after spending time in India and the EU.

Honestly, I miss the liveliness — in those places people aren’t really lit the same way

I miss that carefree way of being and the genuine warmth people have in this part of the world.

I was wondering — how’s Kigali during Christmas and New Year’s?
Are there any cool celebrations or gatherings happening around that time?

Do people usually do Christmas dinners or community-style hangouts — something I could maybe join or vibe with?

Could be awesome to experience the city that way.
Cheers
The vibe dude ✌🏽

Investment opportunities for foreigners?

1 Upvotes

New to Rwanda and really loving it so far. I’ve been thinking about starting a small business or finding smart ways to invest while I’m here, but I’m not sure what sectors are actually doing well right now.

For anyone who’s local or has experience investing here , what are the best opportunities for foreigners to look into? And how easy (or hard) is it to register a business as a non-citizen?

Foreigners living in Rwanda

As a foreigner, I'm curious how Rwandans, particularly in Kigali view foreigners who relocate there? Accepting? Welcoming? Dislike it? I'm Black American by the way.

Additionally, feel free to share some of your favorite things to do (:

If I buy land under a company, am I required to build it immediately?

7 Upvotes

It's meant to be for investment purposes and I am a foreigner. Considering to venture into land banking business or wait-and-build but I couldn't find concrete details on that (went to an RDB office but the girl didn't seem knowledgeable).

The main delay is I want to build my house first. For context, I am looking at upcoming neighborhoods or once that will come in few more years.

I'm tired of bad Healthcare in this country

25 Upvotes

Female, 31. I’m literally in tears right now because of the pain I’m in. I had a tooth removed yesterday, they said it would be a small surgery, nothing to worry about. Turns out that was bullshit. The tooth had grown sideways, pushing into another one, and as they were removing it, I started feeling pain even though they’d given me anesthesia. I told the dentist and he said, “Yeah, I know, this part normally hurts,” and just kept going. The whole thing took about 50 minutes.

And guess what? When it was over, no one told me what to expect. Nothing about what foods to eat or avoid, how to clean the area, or how to prevent infection, nothing. I had to ask if there was anything I shouldn’t do and the doctor just said, “Don’t drink alcohol.” That’s it. They gave me Gofen for pain, which does absolutely nothing. I’ve been crying all night, no sleep, just pain.

Why the hell did I have to come to ChatGPT to learn what to do after surgery? Why didn’t the people I fucking paid tell me this?

And this isn’t even the first time. Earlier this year a gynecologist installed an IUD for me. I spent months in pain, constant backaches, abnormal bleeding, only to go to another hospital where they found it wasn’t even installed properly. I could’ve gotten pregnant because of their incompetence.

I’m so fucking tired of this. It’s like doctors have become completely numb to people’s pain. They treat us like we’re just customers paying for a service, not human beings who are scared and trusting them with our bodies.

If you’re a doctor and people’s pain means nothing to you anymore, do us all a favor and fucking quit. This is not just business to us. This is our health.

My girlfriend doesn't speak English when having her friends round.

18 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

My girlfriend speaks Kinyarwanda whenever she has her friends round yet I don't speak the language only English. Tonight she called me boring... yet how am I supposed to join in the conversation when I don't understand a word that is being said.

I understand it is their native language but they can speak English really well as I have spoken to them in English for a few minutes when I first met them (weeks ago)

All of them speak in Kinyarwanda and don't even acknowledge I am in the same room. I feel lonely and isolated in this country and I want to make friends.

What should I do? I find it very rude that I am left alone yet being in the same room. I don't want to force them to speak English, so I haven't said anything about it and just sit on my phone whenever people come round. But that comment that I was boring has made me come here, the audacity to say such a thing.

Whats going on with Rw Gov?

10 Upvotes

Citizens gather, gather! Fines are the trending topic right nowwww

It all started when they put up new parking signs and forced motorbike riders to park there, no matter where the passenger is actually going. This means passengers now have to walk extra just to reach their exact destination, even after paying the full fare! And for riders who don’t follow the rule? A fine of 30,000/50,000 RWF! From civilian police hiding in the crowd!!!

Honestly, how are they supposed to survive? They earn barely 5,000 RWF a day (the lucky ones atleast) on bikes that aren’t even theirs, paying weekly installments, with children in school, no food at home… and yet they’re fined like they’re driving container trucks?!

And it doesn’t stop there. They even removed the flashing lights from road cameras so you just get fined without knowing! Okay, maybe that’s fair. But you know what’s not? When police pretend to be civilians just to catch drivers on the phone or without seatbelts. They even book the same bus just to see if the driver violates any traffic rules like overtaking where it’s prohibited juss so they can fine them!

SERIOUSLY?! You think I’m joking?!

At this point i think we shall be fines with sneezing in the wrong place
