The Women Today team welcomes you to this week’s magazine. Our sole goal is to give a voice to Rwanda’s women by offering a place where their interests come first. Thereby ensuring that their achievements are celebrated, and their challenges tackled.Today, the weekly Q&A has changed. The Women Today team came to the realisation that it wasn’t enough to interview only women. Plenty of our male counterparts work in women-relevant professions and we felt that we needed their input in order to better inform ourselves. Today, however, we interviewed a truly amazing woman, Jeanne de Chantal Mugabushaka, commonly known as Eminente.  According to the anonymous 21st Century Woman, working women have huge problems attemoting to balance work, leisure, family and friends. She says that the pressure to spread herself thin is something that the entire society forces her to do. But she is valiantly refusing to do soDoes your man have a habit that you find embarrassing in public? Do you want to say something but feel that you might hurt his feelings and cause a fight? Our resident male expert gives insightful advice to the women out there who feel like tearing their hair out in frustration and confusion. Are you the kind of person to come home, straight from work and plop in front of the television to watch an interesting series? Well, perhaps we, can suggest The Babymakers, an exciting movie that you can rent or download. Or perhaps you are the type to sip some tea and quietly enjoy a book instead? Well, if you are, turn to page six and see the suggestions we have. We wish you all a great week and a good read
