CRM 2309 Lecture Notes - Lecture 22: Sexual Penetration, Anal Sex, Out 1
Document Summary
Sv in prison is too often treated as consensual sexual behaviour but it isn"t, it is abuse. Most criminals are young men who in their sexual years are confined together. If you put people of the same sex together then homosexual behaviour will occur; however, this is not usually consensual sexual starvation . Normal impulses are called perversions because of the situation they"re in. Faithfulness to one woman is ridiculed; people deviate from social norms; rules are against sexual contact so prisoners do the opposite. Attitudes of inmates are distorted by prisons; their views towards family, wives, sisters, etc. are tainted. Prison subculture fuses sexual and social roles together: assigned roles, seen in patriarchy. Confinement in prisons is the most racist and sexist environment. Classification system draws a distinction between active and passive people: majority will be so-called men . Paired off with another prisoner he becomes daddy . If he behaves in sexual activity he becomes bandit.
