In mbanta the proverb mother is supreme means that when you need comforting you come back to your mother. Okankwo will not acknowledge these and he suffers in any ways. He thinks that whenever you show even the smallest amount of weakness you are puny and girl like. he thinks that girls are weak and can not be looked up upon. He will not acknowledge that females have many thing they can do. this causes many problems for him. like when he beat his wife in the week of peace because he did not respect her.
