Everyone who pays attention to alternative news is likely aware that transgenders really love raping actual women in prison, which is why they would understandably rather end up in the gentler sex’s quarters than the men’s — and the governing authorities tend to agree, even if they have functional equipment, even if they are six-foot-six and 300 pounds, even if they’ve been sentenced for threatening to rape and murder their own mothers in the first place.

Kamala Harris has some brave and stunning solutions to the problem, though.
First, she promoted during her tenure as California AG using public money to “transition” them, thereby rendering them bona fide women and fit to house with fellow women in women’s prisons.
Via Washington Blade (emphasis added):
Sen. Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign said Tuesday anti-trans bias may play a role in the implementation of a policy she helped create under pressure to provide transgender inmates in California with gender reassignment surgery, after a Washington Blade public records request found only seven prisoners ever got the male-to-female procedure out of 130 who asked.
Harris, a supporter of LGBTQ rights, nonetheless continues to be asked about her work as California attorney general in litigation seeking to deny gender assignment surgery to transgender inmates in the state prison system — and the data indicate that Harris cast the settlement in a rosier light than ended up playing out.
Despite the policy she announced in 2015 enabling inmates to obtain gender reassignment surgery, the data from California Correctional Health Care Services — provided to the Washington Blade after a request under California’s Public Records Act — reveals only a small percentage of inmates who have requested the procedure have been able to obtain it, raising questions about its effectiveness.
She’s also really into getting to the “root causes” of pressing social issues like accommodating violent transgender criminals, as we know.
So in the past, she is on the record offering more fundamental solutions to this effect.
In Kamala Harris’s now-deleted campaign platform back in 2019, she was advocating cutting the transgender prison rape tree off at the roots by not incarcerating LGBTQ+ individuals at all, because equity and because diversity.
Via Kamalaharris.org (emphasis added):
Reduce incarceration of LGBTQ+ individuals. The LGBTQ+ community is exposed to higher rates of violence and assault in prison, and it is even more so with transgender individuals. According to a 2015 US Transgender Survey, transgender people are ten times as likely to be sexually assaulted by their fellow inmates and five times as likely to be sexually assaulted by staff. Kamala understands the best way to address the issue is to seek alternatives to incarceration to prevent trans individuals from being incarcerated in the first place. Kamala would also push to significantly reform our sentencing laws to further reduce sentences.
Sometimes, I’d love to just go back in time to interview some six-pack Joe from the 1950s, tell him that one day a presidential candidate would be suggesting we not prosecute transgender criminals because of systemic inequities, and watch him try to comprehend what I’m trying to tell him.
