Not a thing. You're talking about rape in prison, for some reason. I'm talking about the word transgender being deliberately - and incorrectly - juxtaposed beside the word rapist. If you're agreeing with me that that is wrong, then you have a funny way of showing it.

Now stay with me. The thing the article is pearl clutching about is the possibility of this trans woman raping other women in prison. If pressed the writer would presumably claim she was not bigoted towards trans people and only concerned with public safety. Therefore for them to not just be a bigot they should also be concerned with rape in prison in general.

I agree, as I said. I'm just saying that the title, the headline, misrepresents the actual crime. I don't have an opinion on whether trans people who commit crimes should be incarcerated in men's or women's prisons - I really don't know, and I agree with you that it could be problematical either way. All I'm concerned with though is that the headline is clickbait and will attract the far right crowd and the hatemongers and they'll all point the finger.

yeah, my money's on the writer doesn't give a **** about dudes raping other dudes in prison.

isn't the entire reason they segregate the prisons into different sexes based on the presumption that the men pose a threat to the women?

I feel like the prison thing is somewhat reasonable especially since you are dealing with criminals. They shouldn't go to men's prison either though. We need to build a new trans only super-prison with separate wingsv for all 72+ genders and send all of the nation's trans convicts to that one facility. It's the only reasonable solution.

I do think with the bathroom thing though l feel like people are full of **** when they pretend it's about safety since if it was we would have young boys use the women's room since it's obviously safer. Instead we send them into the piss soaked lion's den that is the public men's room.

I remember my little cousin’s were timed when they went to the bathroom at McDonalds or something. My aunt was like “if they’re not back in five minutes I’m going in.” Even then I remember thinking about all that could happen in five minutes in a men’s room.

I'd be willing to put $5 down on it being a Victorian era prude thing about fraternization.

Big spender over here.
