The deceptive transgender ideology has seeped even into the prisons. We have to pray against this and also pray that our government would stop putting women at risk.
From The Christian Post. When Americans first learn that male prisoners convicted of violent sexual assault, rape and murder are being housed with women, they’re shocked.
Who is praying on the wall?
Under the banner of “gender identity” men who are hardened criminals but self-identify as female are now allowed to request a transfer to women’s prisons. This is happening in states across the U.S., Canada and the U.K. Even before transgender ideology was codified into law, men who identify as women were being placed in women’s jails.
In a bonus episode of The Christian Post’s documentary-style investigative podcast series, “Generation Indoctrination: Inside The Transgender Battle,” Amie Ichikawa, who once was incarcerated and now leads the nonprofit organization Woman II Woman, revealed that when she called home to tell her mother that she was locked up with men, they couldn’t believe it.
“It’s the most helpless feeling I’ve had to date,” Ichikawa recalled of her time in prison at the Central California Women’s Facility, which is colloquially known as Chowchilla prison.
“Just to know that you have absolutely no control of your environment, your own physical wellbeing, your mental health, nothing. And there’s really no one you can talk to about it. It’s so unbelievable that I would call home every day crying for weeks, trying to explain to my family that there was a serial rapist housed here. And that this is legal, that the state really did it,” she continued.
“[My family] thought I was delusional,” she recalls. “And that just adds to the helplessness, the feeling of utter vulnerability. It’s just like you’re emotionally naked. And it creates this cloud of hopelessness that sits over the entire prison. The whole population is on pins and needles and it creates more tension.”
While the first five installments in CP’s podcast series focus on how children are being indoctrinated into claiming transgender identities in schools and how rising numbers of them are being sent down a pathway of experimental medicalization and body mutilation, the plight of prisoners is germane to the broader debate over gender ideology in all facets of society.
Laws and regulations are increasingly being changed with regard to prisons amid the increase in transgender identification. Ichikawa recounted how the experimental use of cross-sex hormones are not only being pushed on children but on an oft-forgotten population: female prisoners.
Ichikawa reported that synthetic testosterone, which is called a “hot drug,” is being distributed in medical lines at prison clinics and pushed on women with a more masculine appearance.
The so-called hot drug must be administered by prison clinic staff, whereas their trans-identifying male counterparts who are on estrogen, a “cold drug,” can take it in their rooms.
“Anyone who is even remotely masculine with a low ponytail or anything is asked if they want to get on testosterone,” she said, and the process of going on the cross-sex hormones is quick. “And it’s much more accessible than anything else. Much easier than getting “a mammogram or an X-ray for a broken bone.”
Ichikawa further recounted that some women have even told her that they wanted to take testosterone so that they can grow stronger, protect themselves from the men inside the prison walls and survive.
CP emailed two officials at the California Department of Corrections, specifically inquiring about the accessibility of cross-sex hormones and the medical protocols within prison clinics that Ichikawa described. This reporter also asked about the safety of women who are locked up with men, and how many men are expected to be approved for transfer in the weeks and months ahead. CP’s questions went unanswered.
Internationally-recognized human rights found in the Geneva Convention states explicitly that female prisoners of war must be housed separately from men. Yet, with the incursion of gender ideology in public policy, that long-held standard does not apply domestically. Meanwhile, purportedly prominent international government entities and purportedly mainstream human rights groups are not only silent regarding women being housed with men in Western countries, but push the ideology that created these problems.
“The reason there isn’t an outcry from the human rights community is that they have largely been captured by this ideology, which is not just accepted at international entities like the United Nations, but promoted by them. They have designated an independent expert on sexual orientation and gender identity,” said Amanda Stulman, who represents the U.S. chapter of Keep Prisons Single Sex (KPSS), a U.K.-based organization that advocates for the sex-based rights of incarcerated women.
Stulman, who is a New York-based attorney but does not function in that capacity in her advocacy role with KPSS-US, went on to explain that there’s no help coming from international human rights organizations, which, like the U.N., promote self-declared “gender” identities over biological reality and sex.
