Has anyone else noticed the blackmail of male prisoners on police shows?

It seems that every time the police want information from a man they threaten to put him in a cell with a bigger tougher man that will take advantage of him.

They never do that with the women they interrogate.

    Do you mean TV?

    Have you ever noticed how well they speak, and how the lighting always makes their faces look great?

    I do think prisons should get that under control, tough--and they could. I have no idea why the culture is such that it's not considered "cruel and unusual punishemnt" to allow rape in prisons. (They effectively DO allow, it, if you ask me)

    Because all the women that end up in prison are crazy and violent in general so it doesn't matter what holding cell they get in. Not every man in prison is a big bubba that likes to plug bums... Most of that reality cop stuff is mostly set up though and I heard somewhere they will go as far as to make the prisoners do stuff for ratings and get some extra food and cigarette money in their pockets so I wouldn't really go by just that.

    I've noticed a lot of blackmails on police shows.

    Oh wow. You're jealous of women being interrogated. Fighting for equal ill-treatment of television characters one step at a time.

    I've never seen that with anybody, but I am sure the reason it wouldn't happen to women as often is because another woman is less likely to use her penis violently.
