That is something that started in the late eighties, to the early nineties. Basically the reasoning for this, is concerning trying to make things somewhat more normal, concerning the proper interaction between genders. There are also men working in women's prisons as well.

There seem to be a decent number of documented incidents where that doesn't work out well either.
Why does a prison environment need to be "normal" as far as gender relations go?

Good question, to which I probably don't have a very good answer. But, suffice it to say there have been psychologists involved in the decision making process in all of that kind of thing. I suppose one thing that may be looked at is that many of the ones in prison will be getting back out, at some point. Therefore the goal is to try to make things as normal as possible, and to encourage correct behaviour between inmates, and inmates and staff; so that it carries out with them into the free world.

That applies to women working in a male prison as well...

An investigation into the murder found that female officers were often times left alone with several male inmates.

Apparently not everybody got the PC "normal" memo.
