Bill Gates Says Women Hold The Key

At the AIDS Conference inToronto, Bill Gates said that women's efforts are the key to stopping the AIDS pandemic.

While I applaud his intent because I listened to his speech and know where he was going with it, this statement can be misconstrude. As in, WHY is this solely women's responsibility? Why is this OUR battle to fight and why is this resting on OUR shoulders??? It also implies that failure is to yet again be placed on women. Sing me a new song. Although this is not what he meant, unfortunately that may be the perception.
