"Females and Prisons"

This place makes up some of the most ludicrous senseless rules, such as us having to stay dressed in orange's or shorts and T-shirts during the day. Now they say this is done for the females who come back here. But that's a damn lie. For very few females are authorized to come back here, on these wings which are our living quarters. Females are mostly confined to the control rooms where they monitor the cameras in the hall.

Here's where the moronic stupidity comes in, when we are going through the cell searches, we're made to stand in the hallway, in view of the camera in our underwear with no T-shirt on, yet we are being denied to do this in the privacy of our cells. But further more - when we go out for showers we are only allowed to wear our underwear. When we go on the quarter deck for haircuts and shaves during showers, we are in our underwear and the female in the control room can visually see us not just through the camera, but through the control room window once we step on the quarter deck. So this rule makes no sense whatsoever.

It is my belief that a woman should not work in a male prison. Nor should a man be allowed to work in a female prison. Screw equal rights! I'm all for women's rights. I think they should get equal pay, equal treatment, etc. But as far as putting a female (which is the male's main objective in life.)(men eat, sleep and breathe thinking about females) into a male prison where you are attempting so hard to deprive the male of any type of visual female stimulation, to then turn around and introduce the female into that environment makes no sense. It's beyond stupid! It's downright moronic! But it's being done - for equal treatment. The line for equality needs to be drawn at the prison gates. I love me a woman. Nothing can put a smile on my face faster than a woman. Skinny, fat, short, tall, young and old. A woman is a woman! But women in this type of environment effects not just the male inmates, but male correctional staff as well. For jealousy plays a major role, I've seen correctional officers get jealous over a female officer spending too much time with a male inmate. Which causes chaos in an already hostile environment.

When I was in the county jail in 2003 I was being held in isolation on the 3rd floor. One half of that floor is nothing but female inmates. Which meant more female officers, oh how I loved it! The female inmates would flash me and put on shows. They would write notes and put them under my door. And the female officers - well I loved all of them. I would spend time talking to them. I loved it when they came in, searched my cell and gave me a pat down. They would all joke about it saying, "You love this." I'd say, "What's not to love. I've got a woman putting her hands on me. :)" There was one female staff member that her and I came real close to having a sexual encounter. We did kiss, and it would have went further had I not stopped. And the reason I stopped, is because we had talked for hours on end. I knew how hard her life has been, I knew she had a child. And believe me, I wanted to go further than that kiss. We were in a room by ourselves, and for anyone to reach us, they would have had to open 2 doors. I was excited - she had been telling me things. But I thought of how 10 or 15 minutes of pleasure could ruin her and her child's life, cause had we gotten caught, she would have lost her job and been charged for a felony. And that was the only thing that kept me from going any further. I sometimes regret not going all the way. Cause I don't think we would have been caught. In fact I know we wouldn't have because no one came down there the whole time. But I couldn't let her take that risk. I still have the kiss to remember. But oh how I wanted so much more. And remember - I had already been down 13 years. So I showed a great deal of restraint in that situation.

But it's just too easy for attraction to overcome common sense. This is not an environment where males and females should be placed together. And especially not in the prisons, where they go as far as banning porn magazines to try to deny male inmates of the visual stimulation. But then turn around and throw a live female into our environment, an object of the male's desire. And I'm not saying women are object. So don't be sending comments of protest. I'm just making a point that a TRUE male desires nothing as much as he desires a female. Until next time.
