She smacks of self adulation. I think she has too high an opinion of herself. No one deserves to be called a boy in that fashion and I don't blame the "boy" for getting rough.

Either way this is not a call to arms for feminists or self proclaimed misogynists, you grown up folks should know better.

How can someone in her right mind call a fellow human 'boy'?! She must be very silly. Her billions worth of property and trillions of fans have gone into her beautiful and One in a million brain.

Apparently, the word 'boy' is for animals not humans while someone like you who might refer to someone's 'kids' apparently mean it in the original sense of baby goats, right?

Nope.

Rather her self-confidence crashed into your insecurity.

No writer in my generation has inspired me the way you have done but your feministic idealogies has really got alot of critics thinkin...dont mind him he is jst an attention seeker, he lacks what it takes to come out with someting excitinly brilliant.Such persons are not humble enough to learn from others little wonder they will always fumble.

He is from the North, am not surprised, they are very good at assasinating someone's characternin public to make them look like saints. For example El-rufai and Sanusi. He has their trait.

They better kiss and make up.

Chimamanda hasn't fully realized how much ego even the most enlightened of Nigerian males is.

I blame her.

Next time she should thread carefully and avoid assuming that others are operating on the same frequency as her.
What constitutes a joke to her may mean more to him.
Even as her protege, he doesn't see himself as a learner under her.

Because I'm quite sure if she was a man, he would have problems with the term 'boy' even if it wasn't meant as a joke.

Next time be careful madam.

Do you know how many years he took from each of them? If chimamanda were 15 yes older than him, this wouldn't have been news at all. Moreover, he's a man, he has his pride to protect. Just followed him on Twitter.

El-Nathan John was my course mate in Uni. I dare say that given half the oppurtunity that Chimamanda was given, he is a far better writer than she could ever hope to be.
A woman with a big ego is all I see.
A woman who thinks she is the be all and end all of writers and therefore should be worshipped.
She should give it a rest.

Very arrogant little biatch feeling on top of the world because she wrote some fairytales.

Someone saw you as a mentor; looked up to you for guidance yet you came to the public to call him one of your boys and you want him to come and hug you. Fuckingretard

What a nincompoop.
In a world where arrogant mediocres are celebrated, her so-called achievements are worth squat to me.
If she had the brains of more talented authors like ben okri and the likes, she'd probably demand to be worshipped.
Typical woman.
