From Andrea:
"I as a victim of child molestation when i was 9 and 13 and as a victim of **** when i was 18(to make matters worse i lost my virginity then) i been hoping for a while now to see some real punishment for these pigs, its so irritating and saddening to see the news about a person who had committed crimes before ****/kill/molest a child or any other person for that matter, why are we being so lenient toward these criminals? i don’t get it, they destroy the lives of thousands but the law its too afraid to destroy their lives, this thing called justice does not seem too just to me.
i don’t believe felons should have rights, incarcerating them its not enough they get out and do it again, its not fair to them so take their reproductive right taken away? boo freaking hoo we the victims didn’t have the choice so why should they? if it was up to me i would cut their balls and penis off, im sure if that was the punishment most guys would think twice about it, they would be less likely to do if they knew that would happen. no third strike."

"To me, ********** combined with other preventative measures may be okay.
********** stops someone from being able to **** with a penis. Therefore it will successfully stop some forms of sexual reoffending.
********** also reduces sexual desire to some extent (I think!). **** is about sex as well as power. Taking the sexual desire motive for ****** away from convicted rapists will to some extent reduce their desire to **** again. This may be enough to prevent them ****** or sexually offending again. Yes, they will still have a desire for exerting power that they may excercise through other criminal acts (ie. battery) – but at least they will have less of a desire for sexualised violence.
If ********** reduces rates of sexual reoffending ********** is fine by me. ********** & releasing sexual offenders is cheaper than incarcerating them for ever. There are also many repeat sexual offenders who are eventually released yet still pose a reasonable risk of reoffending. If they have to be released, at the least they should be *********.
Using ********** as one method of **** prevention is problematic in that it sends the idea that testosterone predisposes men towards ******, and that all men must actively suppress their natural urges to **** (with ********** being the threat looming over their heads if they do not manage to do so). However, if ********** works with some sexual offenders, then using ********** – alone with other methods of prevention – is fine by me."
