Prison holds 31 staff accountable for abuse of female prisoners. Meanwhile, men being abused and raped in prison continues to be an acceptable reality.
Yes, and the cognitive dissonance in this article is mindblowing:
Every individual in state custody deserves to be treated with dignity and respect, and we must always remember that female inmates have long been uniquely vulnerable to abuse
Don't get me wrong, it's a good thing that people are standing up for these women, but calling women uniquely vulnerable is to completely ignore known problems that exist in our culture and prison systems.
I can't agree with you more. I was referencing the way the article is written as though this is a women's issue when "drop the soap" is a trope in movies and jokes and the rape of men is normalized.
