They were gay though and very open about it. I don't remember them or the other non dressing gays being overly harrased though. I am sure it is very different in the higher security prisons where they house the more violent prisoners.
As I was typing this my wife asked what I was responding to. She was a prison guard at a state max for a short time, and she said they had a special section just for the gays and CD,s so they could be kept safe.
