"Okonkwo was clearly cut out for great things. He was still young but he had won fame as the greatest wrestler in the nine villages."

Okonkwo is young and willing to work hard and is going to do something with his life unlike his father. Being the greatest wrestler among nine villages shows the masculinity of this quote. His father  was a very lazy man and wasn't respected in his village so he feels like he has to be different than his father. In the text it says that he was also ashamed of his father which made him not want to be like his father and want to be distant from him.

In the text it said Okonkwo ruled his household with a heavy hand and that his wives lived in perpetual fear of his fiery temper. In their village men are very dominant and rule over their households.

"And indeed he was possessed by the fear of his father’s contemptible life and shameful death."

The fear of his father's power made him distant from what his father was described to be so Okonkwo decided to become more successful than his father so there wouldn't be shame in him.

This image has to do with the chapter and theme because this man in the picture has reached the top of the mountain. When people climb mountains and reach the top it usually means that they feel successful. In the chapter Okonkwo  is described by an old man and he was talking about Okonkwo, who had risen so suddenly from great poverty and
misfortune to be one of the lords of the clan.

I chose this article because people have different views on masculinity like in the article it states in one of the paragraphs that we teach boys not to express emotions openly; that they have to be "tough all the time" ; that anything other than that makes them "feminine" or weak. In the article it also says according to the A.P.A. men are over represented in prisons, are more likely than women to commit violent crimes and are at greatest risk of being a victim of violent crime. In Things Fall Apart if a man or boy wrestle it makes them have respect and also if they treat their wives horrible then it also earns them respect and makes them masculine.

"Okonkwo sat in his obi crunching
happily with Ikemefuna and Nwoye, and drinking palm-wine copiously, when Ogbuefi Ezeudu came in. Ezeudu was the oldest man in this quarter of Umuofia. He had been a great and fearless warrior in his time, and was now accorded great respect in all the clan."
