Ym marn sawl hanesydd blaenllaw megis Deidre Beddoe derbyniodd merched a oedd wedi troseddu gosb lem trawsgludiad oherwydd bod angen cywiro’r anghydbwysedd a fodolai rhwng y rhywiau o fewn y cytrefi cosb.  Alltudiwyd troseddwyr benywaidd i Awstralia er mwyn bodloni chwantiau rhywiol y troseddwyr a’u swyddogion. O dan Ddeddf Trawsgludo mae lle i gredu fod merched wedi derbyn triniaeth wahanol i’w cyfatebwyr gwrywaidd am iddynt dderbyn y gosb hon am fân droseddau.[3]

Wrth edrych ar y driniaeth a dderbyniodd troseddwyr benywaidd, yr hyn sy’n dod i’r amlwg yw’r gwrthdaro cyson a geir rhwng y ddelwedd o’r ferch eiddil a’r gred fod rhai merched yn wirioneddol ddrwg.
