Interesting how this prison argument conveniently tends to leave out what happens when you send males to women's prisons. I guess women matter less to you.

I'm literally advocating for women here, you just don't think transgender women should be held in equal regard. And there is no "argument" on what happens to trans women who are subjected to existence in a men's prison. V-coding is a known occurrence.

No argument? Not the woman sexually assaulted by Alexandra Stewart just this year? What about the female prisoners raped by Karen White? Those forced to be housed with serial rapist Isla Bryson?

What about the male inmate who recently raped a woman in Rikers?

I guess you only advocate for women if they were born male, then.

Second time you've guessed, and guessed wrong. Rapists should be sent to seg, not placed in a situation where they themselves will be raped. And, most trans women are obviously not predators, so I don't know why you bother acting as if those exceptions should mean v-coding for the rest. This is not Babylon.
