1873年至1917年间，每年接受刑事拘留的巴巴迪亚妇女人数超过男子。尽管在这些年的大部分时间里，妇女的人均监禁率仍略低于男子，但考虑到妇女在人口和劳动力方面远远超过男子，这种比例是前所未有的，不仅在英属加勒比地区，在世界其他地区也是如此。牙买加和特立尼达的现有数据在此期间的部分时间内徘徊在18%-20%的女性比例左右，而在巴巴多斯，这一比例通常超过50%。
Between 1873 and 1917, the numbers of Barbadian women committed to penal custody on an annual basis surpassed those of men. While women's per capita imprisonment rate was still somewhat below that of men for most of these years, given the wide margins by which women outnumbered men in the population and the labor force, these proportions were nevertheless unprecedented, not only in the British Caribbean but also in other parts of the world. Available figures for Jamaica and Trinidad over sections of the period hover around an 18–20 percent female proportion rate, while in Barbados the rate usually exceeded 50 percent.
