Some of these folks are post bottom surgery. Which means they no longer produce endogenous hormones and that taking them off HRT is one of the cruelties happening here. Because we need either testosterone or estrogen in order to function well and be healthy.
Sorry, but “assault” is not cutting it, let’s vall it what it will be. These inmates will be raped and I guarantee that these magas will be lolling at prison rape as everybody always has done.
“Oops, you dropped your soap! Are you going to pick it up and get raped? LOL! Much fun!”
I chose my words carefully so it would be less triggering for folks who have experienced that kind of trauma. It wasn’t an attempt to minimize, but rather, to be mindful.
For context, I did time in State prison. Was pretransition at the time. But had trans friends, and witnessed first hand what they went through being housed with cis men.
My heart has been breaking over this issue since the inauguration. I just express it with tears rather than outrage.
