"Inmates who pretended to be transitioning saw it as a way to lower their risk and to try to secure a place in the female prison estate, according to the evidence unearthed by Inside Time, the prisoners’ newspaper."

Who could possibly have thought that this would ever happen?

Does anyone have a working archive link? The .ph version is a nope.

If you click on the link in the OP but switch to airplane mode as soon as the page starts to load it should load the whole article without asking you to subscribe/ limiting you to the first paragraph.

So a man is pretending to be a man pretending to be a woman?

I'm dumbfounded.

Wow, guess water is really wet too!

SunnieShine · 10/07/2023 22:29

Trans is by definition fake because no man can become a woman.

nocoolnamesleft · 10/07/2023 22:27

Now, now. Stonewall tells us that anyone who tells us they are trans is trans. So clearly this unfortunate incarcerated women with penises are true trans and thus really really women.

Are we supposed to be grateful and give credit to someone for figuring out what they have been told years ago....

Boiledbeetle · 10/07/2023 22:19

I would be very interested to know how long those six TW in the female estate have been in prison. My gut feeling is that they've all been there quite a while. I would really like to know more about this.

I've said this before but of the roughly two dozen TW I've known in prison, the vast majority were sex offenders. A small number were vulnerable men held on a VP wing, who were groomed by sex offenders. It is never "safe" to place TW in a female jail, just like it's never safe to place even the most butch transman in a male prison.

Define "faking".

ah yes, I believe it’s commonly called prison onset gender dysphoria.

they must think we’re stupid!
