We have already looked at Okonkwo's relationship with his father, but how does his relationship with his son, Ikemefuna, and Ezimna relate to this parental dynamic when it comes to "manliness" and gender? How does this story so far relate to father/son dynamics, even today? How does this fictional story from the distant past relate to your own personal stories--or stories familiar to you--about father/son/daughter dynamics? Are fathers different now? Are sons different? What about daughters, like Enzima , who are too stereotypically male for the father to accept?
