Generally speaking, when a man thinks about prison, one of his largest fears is getting physically and sexually assaulted [by other men].
And that fear is constant. There is no “safe place” in prison except maybe solitary. There are maybe places that assault is less likely to happen, but it can be a constant fear. You don’t trust that the prison guards and those in charge have your back.
Now let’s talk about women in society. Women generally have that same fear of being physically or sexually assaulted [by men].
Does she feel completely safe:
Going on a walk? Maybe. But not if it’s in a secluded area. Or if it’s dark. Or if it’s getting dark. Or if she gets stared at [by men].
Going out? Maybe. As long as she protects her drink from getting spiked. Doesn’t walk alone to the bathroom. Doesn’t get stared at [by men]. Doesn’t take an uber by herself. Doesn’t walk the street by herself.
At home? Maybe. As long as she has her own money, support, and resources, so that does not have to appease a man whom she lives with at threat of homelessness [especially in the dark, see above], and physical, sexual, and emotional abuse.
These are just a couple of examples. There are plenty more.
The majority of the real estate is owned by men. The majority of businesses are run by men. The majority of laws are written by men. The majority of laws are enforced by men.
Who has the back of women?
