This article offers an examination of the gendering of the Philippines' Muslim South under American military rule (1899-1913) through discourses of violence against women. It explores the exposition and discussion of cases involving abuse, murder, enslavement, and violence in both official and unofficial reports, which revealed a critical discourse of gender construction for both coloniser and colonised in Mow Province.
