Carroll has since been transferred back to a men&#8217;s prison.<\/p>\n<p>A feminist organization called WoLF aggressively opposes policies that permit biological males in women-only spaces. The group currently represents four female inmates in a lawsuit against the California Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation (CDCR) that seeks to have SB 132, which is called the Transgender Respect, Agency, and Dignity Act, declared unconstitutional.\u00a0 The groups Legal Director Lauren Bone told reporters:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;[SB 132] took away the ability to make individualized case assessments. It made it illegal to discriminate on the basis of anatomy and including things like hormones,&#8221; Bone said. &#8220;You don&#8217;t have to identify as a woman anymore. You can identify as non-binary or many other things. And so, what the results are is that there&#8217;s 50 men who are housed there. There are hundreds more on a wait list, who are still being processed. Nearly all of them have penises.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>To demonstrate how mindlessly naive the legislators who voted for and the Governor who signed SB 132 are, its author shared his concern:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>&#8220;Transgender people in prison\u2014particularly trans women\u2014are at severe risk of assault and sexual victimization because they\u2019re automatically housed by their birth-assigned sex,&#8221; Wiener said in a statement after his bill passed. &#8220;I\u2019m authoring this legislation to ensure they can be housed where they\u2019re safest. Transgender people should not be forced into isolation because they aren\u2019t protected where they are forced to live.&#8221;<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Like many other policies pushed by progressives to force transgender men into traditionally women-exclusive areas including sports, sororities and bathrooms, the demand to put them in women&#8217;s prisons throws biological woman and their rights and protections under the bus.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A California law passed in 2021 requires that male convicts, who &#8220;identify&#8221;
