Italy opens its first transgender prison in March
Italy will be opening first ever prison in the world (I think) for transgenders only in March. It was converted from what I think is a reform house for women.
When it opens in March, 30 trans prisoners who are currently held in another prison, will be the first batch to be transferred here.
Usually, trans prisoners are locked in special section separated in the men prison. They mostly can’t be in women prison.
And in the men prison, those transiting trans cannot go through their transiting, such as seeing psychiatrist, hair treatment or surgery. It seems they now can in this trans prison.
That is at least something good for them I guess.
