The patriarchy hurts white, middle-class men too.

Trigger warning, though I usually don't: this is a story about prison rape, and it is graphic and personal. It uses none of the euphemisms that plague stories surrounding prison rape. You will be depressed when you're done, unless you're one of those assholes that lumps criminals into the generic category "subhuman" and would deny them all rights and claims to basic human rights and dignity. If you are that sort of person? GTFO off my friends list, OK?

There's a lot more about prison rape and its antecedents, and I might talk about that sometime. For now, consider this: rape is not universally endemic to prison environments.
