DC: President Trump changed guidelines for how transgender prison inmates are housed on Friday.
The Obama administration had originally altered the guidelines in 2012 to allow transgender inmates to choose where they are housed based on which gender they identify with.
The president’s most recent change means those inmates will initially be housed based solely based on their “biological sex,” which was announced by the U.S. Bureau of Prisons.
It should also be noted that the change in guidelines does not suggest that transgender individuals will be forced to stay in prisons that do not align with the gender they identify with long term.
The move is a result of a federal lawsuit filed by four women who were being held at a Texas detention center. The inmates argued that, by allowing people to choose which prison they want to be housed in, they are put at a greater risk of getting sexually assaulted because they might have to share spaces with people who identify as women. more here
Prison for transgender? How about the nut house.
There’s a simple, cheap solution, y’know …

So much for Obama’s Make Prison Great Again!
bring back asylums. and lobotomies.
“Transgender advocacy groups are furious about the policy change.”
Really.
If every prisoner was in solitary confinement and saw no one but the guard delivering food, and the doctor now and then, this would not be an issue.
The highlight of the month must be when the Snap-On tool truck shows up…
Seein as there’s NO SUCH FUCKING THING as a “transgender,” I cannot fathom why President Trump is wasting his time on this.

Guys who identify as women are not the most attractive in the dating world. It would seem that being surrounded by women starved men would put them in great demand – quite the ego boost.
So, how does it work with a male inmate who identifies as a lesbian…?

@Tim Buktu – I remember when SNL ran a crawl that said:
Attention Martina Navratilova: “Spalding called and said your balls are in”
“I wish I was a lesbian, and not a hetero.
I wouldn’t have to deal with men and all their come and go,
And all their yucky yucky facial hair and all their machismo!
I wish I were a lesbian and not a hetero!
I wish I was a lesbian and that I wasn’t straight.
I’d sleep with women only. Man, it would be great.
I’d throw away my diaphragm, I wouldn’t want to mate.
I wish I was a lesbian, and that I wasn’t straight!
I wish I were a lesbian, I’d like to be a dyke.
I’d sleep with k.d. lang. Mel Gibson, take a hike!
I think it would be nice to love someone who was alike.
I wish I was a lesbian, I’d like to be a dyke!
I wish I was a lesbian, that’s why this song is sung.
It shouldn’t really matter how somebody is hung.
Other things are more important- like how you use your tongue!
I wish I was a lesbian, that’s why this song is sung!
I wish I was a lesbian, and not a hetero.
I wouldn’t have to deal with men and all their come and go,
And all their yucky facial hair and all their machis’mo
(I hate that machismo!)
I wish I was a lesbian and not a hetero!”
