The response is just so, so different from today.

1984 - we put a TIM in the women’s prison and he raped a woman! Shit! This is terrible! We fucked up big time, he was not supposed to be there!

2024 - we put a TIM in the women’s prison on purpose and he allegedly raped a woman, but the victim is a probably attention-craving transphobe so it probably didn’t happen and if it didn’t, it probably wasn’t that bad and if it was, she probably had it coming

It’s absolutely WILD that the damn 1980s was more progressive than today. Like I can’t even.

This never happens, so it obviously never happened then.

Metal_detector [OP]November 27, 2024

Yup. Never happened.

I’ve spent my entire day off digging up stories about TIMs in prison because I want to write an essay or opinion piece on the topic. The fact that incarcerated women are routinely denied hygiene products, bras, forced to labor and deliver cuffed to a bed while these MEN are given everything they want as well as access too these women enrages me to no end.

Like I’m so angry about this situation that if I didn’t focus my energy into something constructive (writing) I would want to start breaking things.

No male “becomes female”. Imagine being this stupid.

The poor woman was totally failed.

So in the past they were by themselves or in men's prisons in a part that was isolated from the rest of the population. Fine with that.

It wasn’t until the 1980s when they started being integrated and begging to be sent to the women’s prison.

Metal_detector [OP]November 27, 2024

Yup. But it wasn’t good enough and gasp they were lonely!!!!! I am not even JOKING when I say I found an article where one of them complained about how it was lonely being separated.
