As predicted, so-called ‘transgender women’ prisoners endanger women: Transgenders are in only a few prisons but this is what the Equality Act will do to federal prisons across America
American Thinker ^ | 06/02/2021 | Andrea Widburg

In 2021, if you are a pessimist and a cynic, you will invariably be proven right. I mention this because in April I wrote that California’s new law placing so-called “transgender women” in women’s prisons put women at risk. Abigail Shrier, who has written about transgender pressure on girls, reports that women in California’s prisons who have had to share space with so-called “transgender” women have indeed felt at risk. This matters to everyone because, if the Democrats do away with the filibuster, they will pass the Equality Act which, in turn, will place all women in America at risk, whether in prisons, in locker rooms, and in restrooms.

Preliminarily, something needs to be done about those men whose gender dysphoria genuinely seems them believing they are women. Placing these men in a men’s prison is so cruel it violates the Eighth Amendment’s prohibition against “cruel and unusual punishment,” for these men’s fellow inmates subject them to horrific sexual assaults. However, placing men who claim to be “transgender” in the women’s prison population is not a solution.

Abigail Shrier, who has come under withering fire for writing that there’s enormous societal pressure on American girls to declare themselves “transgender,” has an opinion piece in the Wall Street Journal (behind a paywall) explaining that the influx of men into California’s women’s prisons is genuinely dangerous for the women inmates. To put a human face on the problem, Shrier spoke with five current and former inmates in California’s women’s prison system.

Shrier explains that, in California, men who claim to be women must be treated as women – which means they get housed in the women’s rooms, regardless of their surgical or hormonal status.

Put them in solitary in the men’s prison. The state is legally responsible for the safety of female inmates, so I see a class action lawsuit against the state of California in the future.

The whole transgender thing has become my litmus test for determining if an individual person, be they your plumber or your congressman, has face planted into raw lunacy.

I will no more call a person with a y chromosome a woman/gir/she/her than I will call a person that thinks they are Napoleon “General, sir.”

To quote Jordan Peterson, “I’m not doin’ it.”

Could you point out where your ovaries are, please.

Yup,it would be understandable for a real woman who's in prison to be scared silly of a cellmate who has a “Y” chromosome.

It is sad that Democrats are so anti-women. But this is the logical result of our “woke “ culture. At the end of the day, Democrats hate everyone including themselves.

“Run them out of town. Stop the tranny BS.”

The federal government should regulate hormone prescribing. The Republicans had the effective power to do so for two years.

It is insane for Medicaid to pay for fraudulent cosmetic surgery.

It’s dangerous to send the likes of Richard Speck into the Womens’ Prison?

And yet prisoners are routinely raped in men’s and women’s prisons and people just joke about it.

In the UK, a rape victim was denied financial compensation because she refused to use her male rapist’s preferred pronouns of “she”.

Women have their own (obnoxious) organizations, they can bitch to those organizations if they don’t like having men invade their domain.

I prefer to spend my time protecting my kids from gay recruiters and protecting this country from China.
