I gave blood recently. One of the questions they ask you is have you been in jail or juvi recently. I assume for the reason you stated above. I.E. having been in jail makes your blood less desireable. Not sure if they'll actually reject you, but they sure ask.
Might also be a more polite way to essentially ask the question "were you possibly raped in prison" as gay/anal sex is still something that prevents you from donating blood unless it's with a clean long term partner.
