Hey mate signed in after a couple of years just to tell you this:
No rape in aussie jails, just doesn't happen mate. We aren't fucking pooftas like the americans. I spent fair amount of time in aussie prison and have to say everyone are huge homophobes, kind of like our normal population. first time I went to aussie prison I was shit scared, thinking that people would be raping me like in the tv shows. I was defintly happy to find out this wasn't the case.
NO ONE WILL RAPE YOU IN AN AUSSIE PRISON, SO RELAX!!!
The prison guards are usually right onto fights, the only danger is if you really piss someone off they will toothbrush you but I mean you have to be a real dumbfuck to have someone sharpen a toothie just to kill ya!
Don't listen to these morons too, if you walk into an aussie jail with your chest out looking like your an up yourself idiot, you will get put down. Just walk in normal with a 'she'll be right attitude' be polite and you will be fine.
Also abos, islanders, chinese aint your mates, but again politeness goes along way. Being rude and tough will get you fucked up pretty quick.
The main issue with rape is after jail everyone acts like you were fucked in all your holes coz they seen it on tv and I must be lieing to say jail rape is overblown.
So my advice is, lift a couple of weights but don't go nuts, relax, learn to meditate to keep you busy in your cell (boredom is the scary part about jail, sometimes I felt like I would die of boredom) and stop stressing. It is kinda just like school again, except kids in school are crueler than prisoners
