Transgender Connection

So I was flipping throught the channels Sunday afternoon and on the WE channel there was this documentary called "The Cruel and Unusual Treatment of Transgender women in Prison". And it was basically about people that were born men and were transgender ( making them feel women like) and how they were treated unfair while in prison. The show was completely shocking. Some of the prisoners did self mutilation because they could not get anyone to listen to them to help them get hormones or fix their problem. It was very sad what some women did to themselves just to get attention from the prisons. Other prisoners were disgusting towards them , they would rape them, force things upon them, do basically anything and everything to degrate them. And there was one specific woman that was one there that when he was a man he was very skilled in oil work and when he changed over to a woman he had the hardest time finding a job, he still had all the same skills and credentials, but he went under the name Linda. So because he had no way of making money he was forced to steal. It was a never ending cycle for him. I just thought the documentary completey connected to the struggles and hardship that transgender peopel are forced to deal with everyday that most people dont even know exist.
