Do you notice the Female prisons are close to NYC, except for Lakeview which is Female and Male...Is there a reason for that do you think?

And I also noticed that hardly any members I know of visit Female inmates (I know one that does) and I have had a hard time getting information for the Female prisons. Why do you think that is?

Except for the obvious reason that less women are in prison, but it also shows you how dedicated women are to the men in prison but what about the loyalty for the women in prison? Who visits them? Would your man visit you for 5-10-20 years while you were locked up?

Interesting thoughts I had. If anyone has any information to share on this please post. ;)

I was thinking that too... How most of the female prisons are close to NY. It is sad that they don't seem to get as much support as male prisoners do. Maybe it's the nurturing side us women have instilled in us... I guess men don't have that sense of needing to take care of the one they love.

I do believe my husband would be there for me ifI ever had to go to prison (which I never plan on finding out!). We had spoken about it before he went in. We were talking about his past and how his girlfriend at the time had left him during his first time locked up. She went to see him 1 time upstate and wasn't really there for him. He called her one day at home and another guy picked up the phone and just laughed at him and he never heard from her again!! Needless to say, he was heartbroken. :broken:

At the time I had never gone through something like this and I told him I didn't blame her for leaving him (I didn't agree with the way she did it though!)... Now that I'm in the situation I feel completely different than the answer I had given him then because I could never imagine leaving him but at the time I was ignorant of the situation..

But my point is that he said he would never leave me, especially after knowing what it feels like and the pain it feels not to have the support from the ones you love. So I truly believe he was sincere and would be there for me. Especially after me being there for him now! Plus, he was always my rock when he was out here. He always had my back and I'll always have his. :heart:

Good point Mrs.G!

Althoughi love my husband I dont think he would be as dedicated to me as i am him in this situation , I am in this for the very long haul, my husband has 25-life. I ve done almost 11 yrs and it gets harder everyday, I feel as though we are drifting apart, I go see him faithfully every week and still it not any easier, he doesnt write at all now and he hardly calls, and to make matters worse, we arent even speaking to one another, we had a terrible visit 2 wks ago and i didnt go this past weekend, I needed a break, I am going thru so much now, my mom is very ill and is in the hospital, I am very ill as well, I have diabetes, and was diagnosed with uterine cancer 2 and hald weeks ago, I'm young and I dont have any children and now I will never be able to have a child of my own, this is very hard for me to deal with right now and I am not getting the support from him that i need
