The construction of male metaphors in autobiographical narratives written by male authors is what the research work celebrates.The book blends theory with tradition in delineating levels of gender imperatives and degree of rejection and relegation women suffer in all aspects of literary and sociological ethos in Nigeria. Narratology and autobiographical approaches have constituted the onus of the project because the works employs these literary instruments in xraying architectonic and rhizomic pattern of discourse on the works and on the opinions of the respondents. The work postulates the need for total elimination of gender feelings and the need for empowerment of women culturally, politically, economically and in all ramifications. The place of human beings in society is what the work attempts to re-establish.
