Sorry, I should have been more clear... Is it safe for me, a woman, to visit there with my wife and kids? We've ruled out most of Africa in our globe trotting

  Ah, sorry, yes I missed that distinction. Neighboring Uganda is very much not a great place to be for same sex couples. I do not believe Rwanda has any laws against homosexuality, but honestly you don't see it very openly here. It is still very conservative. I would say if you are visiting it wouldn't be a problem, definitely wouldn't worry from a safety point of view. If you were planning on moving here then I honestly probably wouldn't recommend it, not because of safety, but just that you would be going against the grain.

  As I'm sure you already know, gay rights have a long, long way to go in the region. If I were gay, it probably wouldn't be at the top of my list :(
