Are you also in favor of enforcing that only cis women are allowed to be correctional officers at women's prisons, which is not currently the case?

No. Correctional officers do not sleep next to prisoners in the same cell every night, so it doesn't create the same threat and fear.

Sexual assault by correctional officers is a problem that also needs to be better addressed. But that's true regardless of the question on how to house incarcerated trans-women.

Sure, but it does mean that impregnation is not actually a new threat.
