There are very few reliable statistics surrounding women
who date convicts. If there were, we’d know just how many women deal with the
pain of loving someone society says you’re not supposed to, are judged for this
love and are frustrated with having their relationships deemed lesser than.
This stigma arises from the same judgment heaped on the men
themselves. “Why would you date him,” we ask. “You can do so much better.”
But is it fair to assume that a woman on the outside is
better than a man on the inside?
