Male and female prisoners are typically kept in separate locations or separate prisons altogether.

Many prisons are divided into two sections, one containing prisoners before trial and the other containing convicted prisoners.

Famous quotes containing the words design and/or facilities:

    The reason American cars don’t sell anymore is that they have forgotten how to design the American Dream. What does it matter if you buy a car today or six months from now, because cars are not beautiful. That’s why the American auto industry is in trouble: no design, no desire.
    Karl Lagerfeld (b. 1938)

    Marriage is good enough for the lower classes: they have facilities for desertion that are denied to us.
    George Bernard Shaw (1856–1950)
