Love Offers No Safety

Nigeria's Queer Men Speak

Love Offers No Safety challenges society to re-think its idea of what being a man entails, and how such concepts limits our freedom to be, live and understand each other.

A companion volume to the widely-acclaimed anthology She Called Me Woman: Nigeria’s Queer Women Speak (2018), Love Offers No Safety challenges society at large to re-think its idea of what being a man entails, and how such concepts limits men and women’s freedom to be, to live and to understand each other. Love Offers No Safety demonstrates that queer men and straight men are very much alike in how they respond to societal pressure and the definition of what a man should be.

The selected narratives, from over 25 contributors, show some queer men, like their straight counterparts, hold on to sexism, toxic masculinity and patriarchy as a way to justify their masculinity within a society that prescribes such a role and expectations.
