    In an analysis of data from 15 states, NPR found that women are far more likely than men to get in trouble for things prisons classify as smaller infractions.https://n.pr/2yFqjTr

        Those tickets can have significant consequences: Women can lose phone or visiting privileges, go to solitary confinement or have time added to their sentence. https://n.pr/2yFqjTr pic.twitter.com/cjkbhFhB6C

        A few states, including Illinois, are trying to change that by using a technique called gender-responsive correction practices.https://youtu.be/klnCZfK8rOc

        That’s the idea that women are often in prison for different reasons than men and may respond differently in prison than men, and that prison rules need to recognize those differences.https://n.pr/2yFqjTr

        While I understand prison is a difficult place, what I don’t understand is why these people can’t follow the rules while in prison. Why is it the systems fault this is happening and not the inmate. People are in charge of their actions, if they break the rules it’s 100% on them.

        Sure, but how do you not “eyeball” someone? Like, what does that even mean. The point is, the rules are so arbitrary or actually hidden, no-one could follow them. It’s not about the following rules, they punish women for existing.https://twitter.com/NPR/status/1051914123125161984 …

        The military used to do the same thing, maybe it has something to do with the belief that women are more likely to be compliant when punished while men can become aggressive. Maybe punishment is more effective on women.The easier you are to punish the more punishment you receive?

        The insane need to constantly “prove” the victimization of women has jumped the shark. All this study means is that women are so entitled in our society they never learn there are consequences to lashing out. Men learn that early on.

        Is why men perpetrate the bulk of violent crimes and sex crimes... okay..

        Missed the point. Men don’t commit their crimes in the presence of authority. They know they will be punished. Women expect to be, indeed feel entitled to be, indulged like children, and they often are, ironically exactly what this study recommends.

        I see examples every day counter to your comments. Please share peer-reviewed studies links that back up your assertion. You're romanticizing the actions of men & simply incorrect about your blanket statement of women. In prison, women are punished for things men get a pass on.

        You need to reread the article and THINK for a change. All it says is that women are punished at a higher rate. It doesn’t say they don’t offend at that higher rate. Amazed you have the gall to mention peer review for grievance studies after Sokal Squared.
