Interweaving Tapestries of Culture and Sexuality, Volume 2 expands the scope of Volume 1, which examined new research in sexuality and psychology from the Anglophone Caribbean. This second volume looks at Caribbean sexuality from around the region and through different disciplines. These include sociology, gender, cultural studies, linguistics, and psychology with topics ranging from masculinity, sexuality, courtship and conflict in relationships, cultural expression of sexuality, women’s role in crime, and violence. The Caribbean has at times been difficult to define culturally and geographically. This book makes a bold attempt at including various language, cultural and geographic groups.  that include Jamaica, Trinidad and Tobago, Guyana, Haiti and Caribbean retentions of male-female domestic conflict from Ghana. It moves beyond the tapestry of the first volume by weaving in new scholarship thereby creating a more diverse view of the Caribbean and its origins. The contents are research-driven, original works that provide empirical data, theoretical perspectives, and accounts of lived experiences. It will be of interest to the reader exploring a wide range of perspectives on Caribbean sexuality.
