In Texas prisons, the feminist movement exists, but in dire oppression. But transgender inmates like myself continue to fight for liberation and equality.
As a trans man in a Texas women's prison, feminism is often incorrectly assumed to be the bane of my existence. My identity makes those around me consider it an act of mutiny when I fight for my rights by speaking out or filing complaints.
The Biden administration says, Enough. Because I am a trans man, my being a feminist is considered a joke. I'm perpetually ridiculed with demeaning questions like, What are you? Are you a man or a woman? or How can you be a man yet be a feminist?
Within the prison system, feminism is considered treason, and transgender folks are punished for espionage. Any actions that cite feminism as motivation are regarded as inciting an insurrection or riot.
