You're referring to the fact that women are 3 times as likely to be victim of SA, not the offender.
I can't tell if I'm tired and missing your point, or if you misunderstood me.
I am specifically referring to inmate-on-inmate SA. As prisons are typically segregated by gender, the offender and victims would both be female in this case. Guard-on-inmate SA on the other hand is mostly male offenders as one might unfortunately expect.
Yeah I guess I didn't think that through...
I found this source that says:
So you're partially correct but it's not because women in prisons are more likely to rape another inmate.
If it's inmate-on-inmate, and they're in a woman's prison, I think it's safe to assume that both victim and offender were women, no?
sorry I didn't know women went to a separate prison
Fair enough... Now you do!
