      ab: The article in the Caribbean Quarterly discusses the concept of cissexism and gendered antagonisms in Shani Mootoo's novel "Cereus Blooms at Night." It explores how Caribbean gender discourse has been influenced by biological essentialism and cissexist ideologies. The text delves into the violence faced by non-cis bodies in the Caribbean due to societal norms and expectations. Through an analysis of the novel, the author challenges dominant gender discourse and highlights the importance of recognizing and addressing cisgenderism in experiences of gender-based violence.
