New York Mayor Bill De Blasio has announced that prisoners in the city will be housed according to the gender with which they identify instead of biological sex.
"In New York City, we believe transgender rights are human rights. And we'll fight to protect those rights in city jails as well," he tweeted Monday.
"It's the city's responsibility to protect the rights and safety of all New Yorkers, and that means protecting transgender individuals in city jails as well," the mayor said in a statement, according to AM NY. "New York City is one of the first major cities to commit to taking this step, and it's crucial to ensuring all our facilities are welcoming and safe for all New Yorkers, no matter their gender identity."
Anne Rettenberg, a New York City-based psychotherapist and feminist is concerned about the safety of female inmates in light of the policy change.
She explained in a Wednesday phone interview with The Christian Post that she is familiar with these prison and detention facilities in the city, having gone to see clients there, and recounted that they are often violent places.
"It's not a safe place to put biological males in with females, biological males who, at the very least have been charged with a crime serious enough not to allow them to be released on their own recognizance. We're talking about potentially violent criminals," Rettenberg said.
Doing this is "just asking for trouble, it's a disaster waiting to happen, I think," she observed, adding that although it is hard to predict how many people will take advantage of the new policy "someone is eventually going to get raped, statistically it's going to happen at some point."

This will last from now until the first woman is raped.
A great point, one that wasn't as immediately obvious as the other reason.
Do these frigging pandering freaks ever give it a rest?
Never mind...
So if a male prisoner doesn’t want to be raped he can just say he identifies as a women and get sent to lady jail? I think if I were wrongly imprisoned (because it would have to be wrongly unless they outlaw my politics) I would take that deal!
I say this without sarcasm, but Hell, I WOULD identify as a woman if I were sent to prison there.
De blasio is for more prison rape.
Yep. In the worst case scenario, it would STILL be far better to get raped by a lady thug than a guy thug.
Insanity....
Ping.
that there is a good one!
There are two SEXES and three GENDERS. Sex is a biological category. Gender is a grammatical category. Why is this so hard for people to get?
Maybe she’s just a garden variety feminist. Or, perhaps a new age feminist.
Must smuggle in many blue pills due to high demand for services......

You overestimate the liberal mind. This program will last until a competent official is elected, and only after lengthy court battles. Give it at least 10 years.
How big will the lawsuit be when a female identifying as a male is raped in a correctional facility?
Of course this is the type of mayhem Progressive/socialist are trying to create.
Only a complete imbecile like Comrade DumblASSio would dream up something like this. How terrifying would it be to be caged with someone professing “they feel like they’re a woman today” who then professes to feeling like a man and raping you, with no escape? With this freakin’ moron, AGENDA uber alles. If reality doesn’t fit his utopian commie agenda, he will conveniently ignore it, no matter who suffers.
Okay, who else thinks this is insane?

Can the city afford 62 different sets of prisons?
