Campaigners have called into question the Scottish Prison Service's (SPS) policy of allowing male prisoners to "self-id" as women in order to be put into a female-only prison.
Their concern has come after new research suggested that men who changed their gender to female in jail are switching back to their birth gender after release.
...who nip into Greggs for a bacon butty the instant the jail doors open on release.
A study, published in the British Journal of Criminology, also revealed that some of these prisoners may only have identified as women in order to have sex with female inmates.
Predators gonna predate. Seriously, did no-one see this coming?
The SPS said it has no plans to make use of the new research. It has undertaken its own consultation exercise into how it fits trans prisoners into its estate and expects a report by the summer.
When they've managed to figure out how they can somehow prove the other team wrong. The safety of female prisoners? It's not even a factor for concern for them, is it?
It's somehow reassuring that the SPS is as well-led as the English shambles.
ReplyDeleteSeems simple to me - as soon as they 'self-identify', book them iin for the Bobbit treatment!
ReplyDeleteOn a memory stick somewhere, I have the (spoof) sales publicity from State Farm Insurance for their "Bobbit Policy" - I must try to find it. I think that it includes tattooing an identity number (bit like a dog's microchip!) on the skin to enable the missing item to be returned to its owner (if a passer-by finds it before the local rodent population does!)

I like that plan!
