SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — California prison officials must provide for free undergarments that flatten the chest of transgender inmates at women's prisons and give transgender inmates at men's prisons access to bracelets, earrings, hair brushes and hair clips, a federal judge said Friday. Corrections officials allow transgender female inmates in men's prisons to have sandals, t-shirts and walking shoes. Corrections officials also allow transgender male inmates at women's prisons to buy undergarments known as binders or compressions tops.
