My answer is yes providing the accused is a repeat offender. I realize that not all of you here are actually Eunuchs, so it may be difficult for one who is not to understand how one of us feels. Fortunately, I have several fellow Veteran friends who are also Eunuchs and we have discussed this and seem to share pretty much the same feelings and desires regarding sex or our lack thereof. Being able to understand how an individuals life would be after he is gelded makes us agree that this sort of operation should be performed on such an offender. I hope this has been of help.

I think that voluntary castration and some jail time could be the answer. It shows that the perhaps the individual recognises his problem and wants to deal with it. Some psychiatric help in jail would help in addition.

However, this does not stop the death penalty, the most drastic punishment of them all, & like castration, irreversible. There are those who say that a determined sex offender will take testosterone, thus negating the effects of the surgery. Maybe. But unless we wish to incarcerate these people for life it is really impossible to keep the truly determined from re-offending.

I beleive it should be optional, and in leu of jail time and complete nullo.With no gear all the hormones in the world won't do any good. Rape might be about power but it is the penis that is the instrument of destruction. I bet the "former rapist now nullo" would soon forget about his former power trip and probably be on the road to a more useful life thus saving the public purse a fortune. It has been done before (California) with a great deal of success.

Tramp,

Unless I misread your post, you stated that California had performed nullification on sex offenders. I understand that "nullification" means loss of the penis as well as the testicles. So, or you actually saying that the complete procedure has been performed in CA? I work in the legal profession, as a law office manager/paralegal, and have NEVER heard or seen any evidence of any state in the USA inflicting such a punishment/preventative or offering that option to a sex offender.

As female who is, for understandable (I hope, LOL) reasons, interested in castration, I would not be against such extreme measures in certain cases. Still, I will need more empirical (Case notes, publications, etc) evidence before I believe that ANY state has ordered or "bargained" for total emasculation.

If that is, in fact, an option...I wanna watch! LOL.

Love to all, especially Uncle MacWolfie,

I am one that feel sex offenders should be castrated our famley has had to suffer because of a man that was trusted took advantage of a young person.I feel that if thies people were punished they would think twice befor they acted knowing their fate.I think the real crime is that the offender gets a little jail time for his power trip and the victem suffers for the rest of her or his life where is the justice their.

I dont want to be cruel to thies people but this is a crime that just wont go away for the victem and the famley

I despise sex offenders of any kind but particularly pedophiles. The only punishment for vermin of that nature should be a .38 hollow-point in the back of their head or public execution by hanging.

Castration should not be an option as it does not solve the problem. Sexual offenders/pedophiles CANNOT be cured. They are sexual predators and will always be sexual predators.

Their nature would remain regardless of castration or complete nullification; however, what would happen is that their psychological impulse/desires/fantasies would have no sexual outlet and that would result in violent attempts to sate their impulses.

Castration of child molesters...

You're cutting the wrong end. It is the (big) head that needs to go, then everything else will take care of itself...

A-1 - Right on, I'm with you! Beheading child molesters guarantees they won't commit another offense.

I agree Taylor that treatment of child molesters and pedophiles should include punishment as well as treatment to ensure they can't carry out perverted acts again. Chemical castration isn't permanent and needs to be supervised for the rest of the offender's lifetime. Surgical castration at least is permanent and is also punatitive. Chemical castration certainly removes the testosterone in the body, getting rid of unwanted sexual urges, and stopping erections and ejaculations. It also causes the penis and testicles to shrink. But if the treatment is stopped, the urges return.

. . Only if it includes both castration and penectomy.

I don't think castration or nullification is appropriate for sex offenders. Not only does that cast those who choose castration or nullification in a negative light, it simply doesn't solve the problem.

Sex offenders should either be permanently incarcerated or executed. Hell, I'd volunteer to be the executioner. I wouldn't lose a wink of sleep because those who commit such horrid acts have forever surrendered their humanity and their place in society.
