Yes, that's the dominant item in my mind when I hear 'Rwanda' as well.

30% of the seats in parliament are reserved for women under a quota system. The latest parliament is over 60% female, meaning the country really does prefer women to some significant degree (it isn't just the quota system creating high numbers).
