Exploring gender roles in Rwanda, the book examines how society constructs definitions of femininity and masculinity, particularly through the lens of the unique sexual practice known as Gukuna. It delves into the evolution of these gender categories following the devastation of the genocide, emphasizing the resilience of traditional values amidst globalization. The author highlights how Rwandan culture prioritizes women's sexual pleasure within its social framework, distinguishing it from practices like female circumcision found in other African nations.
