      In the case of legal documents it is for safety, go look up what happens to trans women if they’re arrested and thrown in with the men, which happens a lot. But it’s not just what the other prisoners do that’s horrific, the cops themselves preform heinous acts towards trans women. Also you’ll respond to me but not the other person who already pointed out it’s for safety?

          God you’re fuckin’ dense. TRANS PEOPLE ARE TREATED LIKE SHIT BY POLICE AND PRISONERS ALIKE BECAUSE THEY’RE TRANS, not because they committed a crime. Also saying not to commit crimes ignores what the conversation was originally about and it’s the safety of a marginalized group of people, not just in the case of being arrested.
