As more research is conducted on women involved in the criminal justice system, it becomes increasingly clear that
◦ there are no, or at least minimal, differences in the paths to criminality taken by males and females.
◦ when differences between men and women are accounted for in jail and prison management, such gender-informed responses can actually enhance the safety and security of jails and prisons.
◦ there are no, or at least minimal, differences in how men and women respond to custody and supervision.
◦ All the above are supported by the research.
◦ None of the above is supported by the research.
