1 year agoI use “queer person” and “queer folk” as I find it sounds softer than just “queer” and also serves to differentiate it from bigots use of the word.
Your comment made me curious, so I looked it up and found a 2006 study that says you are absolutely correct, inmate-on-inmate sexual violence is almost 4 times higher in women’s prisons: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2438589/ I seriously did not expect that.
