“The emperor has no clothes.” These are the words that crossed my mind the first time my client, Mozzy Clark, recounted the abuse she suffered at the hands of the man she was forced to share a cell with in Washington Corrections Center for Women. Washington, like some other blue states across the country, has created a policy that allows male inmates who claim to be transgender to be housed in women’s prisons — in some cases based on nothing more than the individual’s self-proclaimed gender identity.
Under these rules, a man can be convicted of the most heinous, violent crimes imaginable – rape, torture, murder – and still be allowed to serve time in a women’s prison. No surgery. No sex-crossing hormones. Without any psychological assessment.
Just reciting the magic words, “I identify as a woman,” is enough to give these men access to hundreds of imprisoned and vulnerable women who have no choice or voice in the matter. And the most inexplicable part is that all the supposed gatekeepers in our society—lawmakers, judges, prison officials, and civil rights organizations like the ACLU—not only agree with this, but are actively complicit in crafting and imposing these policies on the general public. the public and the women who are most affected by it.
WASHINGTON PRISONER ACCUSED OF ABUSING cisgender AFTER GENDER CHANGE, TRANSFERRED TO WOMEN’S PRISON
In our recently filed lawsuit, which alleges violations of Mozzy’s civil rights by the state of Washington and prison employees, we detail how Mozzy was locked in a cage with a completely intact 6-foot-4 man who had prior convictions for domestic abuse and battery children.
Being alone behind bars, without family or any kind of support system, was punishment enough. But the trauma of being forced into a cell and sexually assaulted by a man with a long history of child abuse and extreme violence is a pain I wouldn’t wish on anyone.
The lawsuit alleges that while they were forced to share a cell, the man, Christopher Williams, groped in front of Mozzy, taunted her in the shower and in the bathroom, and eventually sexually assaulted her. During this time, prison officials ignored, dismissed and laughed at her desperate pleas for help.
Since her release, Mozzy has made it her mission to ensure that no other woman suffers the same fate. That no woman’s safety is so outrageously threatened by the system charged with protecting her.
In Mozzy’s own words: “Being alone behind bars, without my family or any kind of support system, was punishment enough. But the trauma of being locked up in a cell and sexually assaulted by a man with a long history of child abuse and extreme violence is a pain I wouldn’t want to no one, and what’s worse, the people in prison whose job it was to protect us, feel like they just offered us to this man. They’re sacrificing themselves to protect themselves.”

Which brings us back to the story of “The Emperor’s New Clothes”. The timelessness of Andersen’s fairy tale can be attributed not only to the power of the metaphor but also to the instinctive reaction the image evokes in the reader: disgust, disbelief, revelation. A grown man parading completely naked in front of a crowd of onlookers – both aware of the obscenity they are watching and at the same time ignoring it, either out of fear of social ostracism, or because they have become true believers in the mass illusion. This is why Andersen’s story, more than any other story about collective delusions arising from social pressure, is the story we still tell today.
And it is this story that can teach us the most about the radical gender ideology that has spread like wildfire across our nation. There are currently dozens of violent male inmates housed in women’s prisons, most of them in California and Washington. However, the number will rise radically as a result of new laws passed by blue state legislators and precedents set by left-leaning judges who require prisons to be assigned based on “gender identity.”

This new reality, something that a short time ago would have been considered outrageous and absurd, is being celebrated by true believers transgender delusion and conveniently swept under the rug by progressives who were too shy to speak out against the orthodoxy of their religion. Namely, many men who requested to be transferred to women’s prisons had already committed violence against female prisoners.
Right now, Mozzy, on behalf of millions of vulnerable women across the country—who are trying to preserve women’s space in schools, in sports, and even in prisons—is telling us that the emperor has no clothes. If we continue to ignore it, it is a danger to our civilization.
