Oh, absolutely. That would go a long way toward eliminating the sexual double standard, wouldn’t it? Men can go to jail because they’re basically evil and can take it. But women are precious and fragile (unless they’re not) and can’t be exposed to such barbaric treatment.

Do they think women are unable to be cruel and dangerous?

Maybe this is an attempt to preempt Hillary’s inexorable destiny...

and an expansion of gender-specific support

Notice how liberals always want to tear down societal norms, and then claim exemptions from their destruction.

Well, interesting thoughts. Depends on the crime though. If she was in prison for some non-violent offense, maybe this could make sense. But if she’s there for a violent act, do you really want her in your house?

Good point. Just like they vote for high taxes, then flee to red states and continue voting for Democrats.

There are some men that might take their chances. Some like the rough girls. I always had a soft spot in my heart for Tonya Harding.

An average of nine deaths a year other than by natural causes seems very high given Britain’s relatively small women’s prison population. Must be very poor supervision. I wonder how this compares to deaths by suicide and violence in US women’s prisons.

No prison for black people. No prison for women....

I can see where this is going.

Hey...why not? They tried to stop prosecuting Blacks for violence and other crimes in school - why not give females a break.....but how do they get off with labeling them “women”? Isn’t that trans-sexist????

I actually think that is a great idea for the elderly. Obviously they would have to be vetted.
