Abstract
Male sexuality is openly privileged and its many tenets socially endorsed, as depicted in The Lonely Londoners male characters’ adherence to the phallus as a symbol of power over women (Brittan 1989). Androcentrism and sexism seemingly characterize the resultant social and cultural constructs of masculinities, and multiple sexual conquests and the notion of reputation become a collective marker of Caribbean male immigrants across nationalities, binding West Indian men to overcome differences in geography, language and politics.
