So Nigerian

We’re joined by Steve Chuks — actor, host, and content creator — for a conversation centered on insecurities among men and how they show up in everyday life.We unpack the pressures men face when it comes to appearance, success, and expectations, and the things they feel the need to compromise or hide in order to fit into society’s idea of what a man should be. From physical attributes to financial status, nothing was off-limits.We also touch on the “anyhowness” of Nigerians — how certain attitudes and behaviours can sometimes reinforce these insecurities, both online and in real life.JOIN THE WHATSAPP CHANNEL:https://whatsapp.com/channel/0029VbBii6eLtOjA3h8LHg2BFOLLOW US ON:http://twitter.com/sonigerian_http://Instagram.com/sonigerian_http://twitter.com/damiar0shttp://instagram.com/_damiiaros7http://twitter.com/medici__ihttps://instagram.com/medici.ihttps://instagram.com/stevechuks_ Hosted on Acast.
