This stuff is awful but ATOT likes the FPMITA meme.

Here are some exerpts:
[An inmate] claimed me as his property and I didnt dispute it. I became obedient, telling myself at least I was surviving . . . . He publicly humiliated and degraded me, making sure all the inmates and gaurds knew that I was a queen and his property. Within a week he was pimping me out to other inmates at $3.00 a man. This state of existence continued for two months until he sold me for $25.00 to another black male who purchased me to be his wife.

-- E.S., Michigan inmate, October 4, 1996.

My first mistake was not hanging out with the ignorant tough guys, and staying in my cell most of the time: they take that as a sign of weakness. I wasn't ready for the clique action. The prison was a gladiator farm back then; I kept getting into fights and finally I couldn't do it any more. I was getting beaten up every day for a month.

When a new inmate enters an open barracks prison it triggers a sort of competition among the convicts as to who will seduce and subjugate that new arrival. Subjugation is mental, physical, financial, and sexual. Every new arrival is a potential victim. Unless the new arrival is strong, ugly, and efficient at violence, they are subject to get seduced, coerced, or raped . . . Psychosocially, emotionally, and physically the most dangerous and traumatic place I can conceive of is the open barracks prison when first viewed by a new inmate.

The theory is that you are not gay or bisexual as long as YOU yourself do not allow another man to stick his penis into your mouth or anal passage. If you do the sticking, you can still consider yourself to be a macho man/heterosexual, according to their theory. This is a pretty universal/widespread theory

Everyone knows this?

why not bite the balls off the first guy that tries to 'seduce' you? I bet the next guy thinks twice about it, or the will stick you in solitary for a good long time.

Also, no one has said:

it's FPMITA prison. All parts of the acronym (including prison) are necessary.

So where are these prisoners sneaking off to that they're out of the watchful eye of the guards? I thought prisoners were pretty strictly supervised, but I guess not considering how common this is.

Probably guards just turn a blind eye. Inmates probably network with some guards and have favorites.

What bullshit. If you can get hard and stay hard in the face of another man's butthole then you're gay.

When I was in my early teens, I was always getting into trouble, sometimes even with the law. My mom was raising me by herself and could not control me anymore. Then one day one of my uncle's friends took me aside and had a talk with me. He basically told me what happens to weak little kids in prison and juvy. That you get buttfucked and if you resist, they knock out all your front teeth - so you cant hurt them when they stick their dick in your mouth.

That talk straightened me out. The fact that I still remember it 15 years later shows how powerful words can be.

I'd kill myself, or fight until I was dead before I'd let them touch me. They'd be raping my dead body if anything.
You say that, but 2-3 of them could hold you down and you couldn't do anything about it.

All the more reason never to go to prison.

Apparently this depends on what the environment in the prison is like, but supposedly in a lot of places a simple willingness to fight, even if you get your ass kicked, will earn you a lot of respect. It's MUCH better to fight and get the hell beaten out of you than it is to be meek and submit. 99% of criminals are cowards and will go after the easiest targets.

Not every prison is like this. Some prisons that are low security for non-violent offenders rape and homosexual activity is frowned upon by the inmates. If you are locked up with violent animals then you should expect to play by those rules.

True. I read an interview with a guy who went away for about a year to minimum security prison on some white-collar conviction, he said that violence there never got worse than the occasional fist fight. There was a decent amount of homosexual activity, but it was generally consensual (people who've been in prison for a long time get pretty desperate...)
