The Nigerian novelist is also critical of modern masculinity, calling it a “hard, small cage” that forces men to hide emotion. “We teach boys to be afraid of fear, of weakness, of vulnerability,” she writes. “We teach them to mask their true selves, because they have to be, in Nigerian-speak – a hard man.”
Supposing some of us actually like and enjoy being "hard" men? Has it ever occurred to this lady that being hard may actually be more enjoyable and fulfilling than being soft?
I wonder how many "soft" men she's actually slept with.
