This theoretical review article investigates cisgenderedness, or the cisgender category, and its
ramifications in daily interactions to understand its intelligibility, as well as the effects it (re) produces. The thinking of Foucault and of some trans authors was the theoretical reference used for the scientific investigation of the regimes of truth, of the production of resistance and of ethical and aesthetic experiences. It was possible to demonstrate the crossings between the discourses and biopolitics which modulate ways of being, calling for new advances in the studies of gender and sexuality, besides bringing to light important elements for the processes of subjectivation and for the problematization of cisgenderedness, thus recognizing the importance of the term for a more equal analysis of human experience.
