I remember hearing about some boy who was sent to a prison for a minor offence, was raped, got HIV.

Regardless of your intent, which I cannot know because I am not a mind-reader, what you write here therefore still comes across as if it was ~"it's only bad when pre-op trans women do it".

Please refrain from deliberately misreading my comments.

Sexual assault and rape is terrible, no matter who the perpetrator or victim is. On this, I assume we agree.

The issue here is policy changes that remove one of the most important safeguarding measures to prevent this in the prison system: segregation by sex, so that all male inmates have no physical access to any female inmates.
