I allready called them last week and will get a first appointment very early next year.
Thanks for contacting these people. If I understood it correctly he considers the surgical castration as a proportinate option... I am kind of relieved that someone else sees it that way and I am not totally mad...
Ich weiß nicht, was soll es bedeuten,
Daß ich so traurig bin;
Ein Märchen aus alten Zeiten,
Das kommt mir nicht aus dem Sinn.
Die Luft ist kühl, und es dunkelt,
Und ruhig fließt der Rhein;
Der Gipfel des Berges funkelt
In Abendsonnenschein.
From Heinrich Heine, Die Lorelei
In englischer Sprache, my translation:
I do not know what it means,
That I am so troubled;
An ancient story,
That I cannot get out of my mind.
The air is cool, and it is getting dark,
And the River Rhine flows peacefully;
The mountain peaks sparkle
In evening sunlight.
I am a Wisconsin Registered Professional Engineer, having undergraduate and doctoral degrees in bioengineering, whose ongoing research focus is the neurobiology of child abuse and the effects of child abuse, as a biological, not merely social, human predicament. My research field work has given me many hundreds of contact hours with people who were abused as children and who became child abusers, some of whom I surmise are not likely to ever get out of prison.
In my work child abuse is not mainly what is now considered to be child sexual abuse, though child sexual abuse is, in my view, clearly the result of one or another form of experienced abuse. The most profoundly tragic aspect of child abuse, in my work, is the way child abuse tends to result in most people who experienced child abuse blocking out conscious awareness of their childhood abuse experiences.
In one school, in California, I was horribly, horribly abused by my teacher and the school principal. In one school in Wisconsin, I was sexually molested after a teacher so ridiculed me before his class that one of my classmates very improperly grabbed me where being grabbed was horribly wrong. I am autistic and transgendered, and am vividly aware of what it is to be abused in ways society defines, in profoundly disastrous error, to not be abuse.
To the extent that society demands that one has to commit a crime in order to get the help that might have prevented the crime, I find that attitude to be an unconscionably abusive atrocity.
From the English language version of Prevention Project Dunkelfeld:
Do you like children in ways you shouldn't?
According to scientific research, up to one percent of all men have sexual fantasies directed towards children. This means, they have a partial or exclusive sexual preference in terms of pedophilia or hebephilia. Causes for these sexual preference disorders are generally unknown.
My best estimate is that there is less than one chance in ten thousand that the bioengineering research I have done has not accurately recognized the "Causes for these sexual preference disorders..." The cause, in my view, is to be found in the processes of human social evolution. A proper account of this view is my main work focus, and the account is not yet completed in word form.
In my work the cause of damaging sexual preferences is not particularly different from the cause of any, and every, other form of human destructiveness; I have never found any human destructive act that was not a response to a prior human destructive act.
When children are treated in destructive ways because of social norms and conventions, the destructive effects of such treatment do not go away merely by ignoring them.
Everything I have learned about Prevention Project Dunkelfeld informs me that they may be an excellent resource for preventing criminal sexual conduct involving children.
