Do you think trans people who commit crimes should go to prison based on what their first original birth certificate says or their gender identity?

Do you think transgender people who commit crimes should go to prison based on what their first original birth certificate says or the opposite gender they chose to identify as later in life?

A trans women original birth certificate most likely says male

A trans man original birth certificate likely says female

Transgender people mentally believe they are the opposite sex but physically they are not.

Yes, prison isn’t meant to be a reward so maybe they should be sent to the one they least prefer to go to but only if they do something bad and criminal. Good people don’t deserve to suffer.

Why do u care? Are u planning on going to prison urself and worried u may encounter a trans person there? They're no more dangerous than other prisoners, but are usually at higher risk of danger than other prisoners. Wherever they're sent, they're likely to end up in solitary at least part of the time bc of transphobic prisoners. So if u do go to prison and meet a trans person (man or woman), just don't threaten or attack them for no reason? Solitary in American prisons is literally classed as psychological torture by other countries. U don't want that.

Would you want to be locked in a cell with a biologically male rapist with intact genitalia who simply identified as a woman?

[GOLDFISH_smile]

@DextroShade I'd rather that than be locked in with someone who believed I was a rapist. Rapists are very... unpopular in prison. Especially child rapists, and most transphobes still think trans people are groomers just by being trans. What do u think they'd do if they found themselves locked in a room with someone they believe is a child predator? Not just rape them, probably.

It should be based on their birth gender only.

[EmmaMary]

Thank you for the MHO.

Welcome

I think they should go to the prison that their body is currently in if they have transitioned send then to the assigned prison if it would cause fears of safety for the other prisoners keep them is solitary confinement or give the option to a prison of the born sex

[boggboss]

OK...

[Asker]

It’s true. These people take opposite cross sex hormones pills and injections to try and give themself a male or female appearance because their body can’t do it naturally.

[boggboss]

U are telling me something I already know

[Asker]

This isn’t the same as a menopausal woman who was born female taking estrogen because estrogen isn’t a cross sex hormone for females.
Both male and females have estrogen but it’s naturally higher in females.

Trans women who are born male take estrogen to give themself a female appearance.

[boggboss]

Why are u telling me information I already know are u a bot?

[andreasderjuengere]

Let them choose.

And give them the opposite :D

Prison isn't meant to be a reward...

[missCivi]

this practice would be considered discriminatory and cruel in my country and therefore be highly illegal

[andreasderjuengere]

@missCivi... by this logic ''your'' country then must abolish prisons in general.
Because the inmates are ''discriminated'' for having done something that others did not want them to.
''Illegal'' - is what these 'others' feel free to dictate.
Personally, I would not want to live in such an un-free country :)

It doesn't matter what disguise you wear when commuting a crime. If you are convicted you go to the appropriate jail. If you throw on an ape mask when you rob a bank, they don't house you at the local zoo for the term of your imprisonment. You still go to normal jail to be housed with other inmates, segregated based on your sex.

[glennos89]

They should be treated like there original gender when they where born. Otherwise every guy could avoid being with only males because everyone can say they are transgender even though they aren't actually. Personally I find the whole transgender thing weird as fuck anyways

[FunkyMonkee]

The sex they are, now. Unless they are going M - F and haven't yet fully transitioned.
F - M should probably go to a female prison because, even though they are, now, guys, they still have a cunt and, if in a male jail, they'll get raped to hell and back!! UNLESS they can carry off being a guy so well that none will notice.

[DextroShade]

They should go based on the biological sex. There have been multiple cases where male rapists will identify as women and get sent to women's prison and have some unfortunate women locked up in cells with them. It's literally rewarding rapists with a taxpayer-funded harem.

[BootsLover94]

I still have my dick but if you put me in a male prison. I would probably get rape.

If male prison, give them their own cell block or a cell block where there are no dangerous sex driven meatheads

[Avicenna]

Men pretending to be women should not be allowed in women's prisons.

[HaleyCatgirl]

I don't think that really matters if you commit a crime you're going to jail anyway lol

[HaleyCatgirl]

I don't care but people in jail personally so let everyone suffer

[Anonymous]

If they still have their dicks attached to them, than they definitely should be in a male prison. If they have fully transitioned, I don't know

[Anonymous]

The had better not get themselves sent to prison because, regardless of where they go, they are going to be fucked!

[Opinion Owner]

RESPONSE TO UPDATE: Your question begins with "Do you think trans people who commit crimes. . ." so I think everyone is responding with that assumption. Therefore, telling us that "only if they do something bad and criminal. Good people don’t deserve to suffer." seems rather silly and needless.

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

If you were born as a boy then men prison and vice versa.

All these stupid games have to stop.

[Staximus]

The last place you want to put a biological woman is in a men's prison

[Anonymous]

Sex. Prisons are segregated by sex--not gender.

[animesenpai]

As someone who works in prison both options suck

[KrakenAttackin]

If you have a cock, you go to male prison.

[B5567]

Everyone can go into every jail
