Nigeria’s sexual revolution
Plus, Xi Jinping’s bestseller, and coming to terms with Germany’s savage conquest of Namibia
DECEMBER/JANUARY 2018
Glad about the boy
In deeply patriarchal, devoutly religious Nigeria, traditional gender roles are expected and enforced. Since 2014, same-sex affection in public can mean a decade in prison. In that context A Nasty Boy, a new online magazine, is bold, even revolutionary. It features stylish shoots that would look at home in many of the world’s high-end fashion publications. A young man (main image) wears winged eyeliner, black-tipped fake nails and glitter. Muscular male models laugh, comfortably draped over each other. Despite some homophobic comments, it has been praised in local newspapers and blogs. It isn’t yet available in all good newsagents, but by starting conversations about “otherness” it is an important step for those Nigerians who tread outside the strict lines drawn by their society.
