Publication Type: Conference Paper/Unpublished Manuscript Abstract: During 2003 Congress passed the Prison Rape Elimination Act (PREA; 42 U.S.C. § 15601), and President George W. Bush signed this act into law (P.L. 108-79) on September 4, 2003. As part of this law, the Bureau of Justice Statistics (BJS) was required to conduct “a comprehensive statistical review and analysis of the incidence and effects of prison rape” (PREA § 4 (a)(1)). The BJS review, however, has focused almost exclusively on sexual assault incidents with male victims, and failed to address the needs and related problems associated with the female prison population. In our presentation, we will report the early findings of our research designed to address this gap in the “comprehensive” review. Specifically, we evaluate the impact of incidents of coerced (rape), as well as, consensual sexual relationships on female prisoners’ sexual orientation during incarceration and after release. As part of our analysis, we also examine the prisoners’ self-identification of their sexual orientation prior to incarceration. We anticipate that this research will reveal the necessity for a different model for female confinement beyond the slightly modified male model currently deemed adequate for this deferentially socialized population.
