To be actually fair, the notion that OP's comment was referring to only men is entirely left to the reader to decide.

Women can be SA'd in prison by other prisoners, and additionally have to contend with the petty humiliations from guards taking unnecessary sexual turns that they wouldn't with men.



The specific turn of phrase used is an idiom stemming from a pop culture reference. I doubt it's meant in a gendered way.

Nor should a description of prison SA be considered an endorsement.


Yes, fair, but also keep in mind that 93% of American prisoners are men and 99% of rapists are men.

The problem is decidedly a male one just because of the demographics.

Obviously a terrible thing either way.


There are sexual predators that do pray on men and the sadistic types probably find their way to prison guards.
