    You could try realizing that your jargon is not universal (even in your own country!) and not be a vicious twit.

    But that isn’t likely at all, so I’ll just cut this off at the knees right here.

      Apologies. I just consider it polite to search first for a definition before asking other people to explain it. This isn’t an obscure bit of terminology. That wikipedia article would have popped right at the top of search results if you had tried searching.

        Dude . NGL i was actually annoyed that you wrote a whole ass dissertation in reply and still didn’t just write a one sentence definition. Everyone doesn’t want to have to open a whole other page just to understand WTF you’re talking about. Granted, given the harrowing nature of the subject matter (now that I actually know WTF you’re talking about) this is a minor annoyance. But I’d bet fewer than 10% of the people who read your response bothered to click on the link and I would argue that it would be better for society if more people were educated about the absolute horrors of the (US, others?) penal system.

        And just to close the loop for other lazy folk like myself: V-coding has to do with deliberately housing trans women inmates with sexually violent male inmates.
