She has 8 years to figure that out.

Being LGBT and support this craziness? Maybe she’ll need even more time to get it right…

She won’t figure shit out in a mens prison. It will be 8 years of torture and trauma.

One where the only protection may come from a white nationalist gang willing to take her if she detransitions. She won’t hear less extremist rhetoric in there. That isn’t what US prisons are for.

Mens prison, women’s prison, it seems above all be a USA prison.

Sure, but she will face abuse above and beyond that experienced by most other inmates.
