In [[California]], the Transgender Respect, Agency, and Dignity Act mandates that males who identify as transgender, nonbinary, or intersex be housed with women. California is home to the largest women's prison system in the world. A [[feminist]] group, the Women's Liberation Front filed suit claim the California law can be considered cruel and unusual punishment, which is banned by the [[Eighth Amendment]], and is also a violation of their [[14th Amendment]] [[equal protection]] clause. The women in California prisons face “substantially increased risk of sexual harassment, sexual assault, rape, and physical violence,” as well as sexually transmitted diseases ([[STD]]s) and fear of attacks. The suit said women’s right to privacy is violated by having men around.
