This is a very good point. The people whining about Kenyan education not being like in Scandanavia are the same ones spilling vitriol about women.
Well guess who are driving the education conversation in Kenya? Women. You don't listen, then you accept a racist, patriarchal CBC.
Women in Kenya are fighting for environment, health, education, energy justice, against extra-judicial killings, constitutionalism. We're not asking for a woman to go to State House to get a handshake gender deal and a secret report for a referendum. We are saying #TekelezaKATIBA
I'm not saying that men are not also fighting for these things but that the people opposing the implementation of the constitution are fighting for not just inequality, but also for Kenyan politics to remain immature obsession with personality rather than issues.
We want devolution because of the principle that ordinary people must be part of making decisions about their destiny. The 2/3 gender rule is the same principle. Women must be part of decision making, because they are people.
But you never know, maybe the cavemen are saying that women are not people, which raises the question who gives birth to them. The cavemen need either a psychic review, or to ask God how come they were born and raised by non-humans.
And either way, women are still human.
