How do women's prisons differ from men's? Why have women's prisons been studied less often than institutions for men?
What will be an ideal response?
• There are far more men in prison than women, with the ratio of male to female inmates being around 15 to 1, which may account for women's prisons being studied less often than men's. The number of female inmates is rising quickly, however. Female inmates are disproportionately victimized by both other inmates and staff in federal and state prisons, as well as local jails.
