Perhaps because the world is full of people who'd want to see you castrated and killed simply for admitting such an attraction? Possibly involving a volcano?


It's not only that, but even admitting such an attraction to medical professionals could have extremely negative consequences.

It's much the same as people admitting they're obsessed with torturing someone (no, not like extreme S&M) and find it so hot, or someone admitting that they seriously love the idea of kidnapping and murdering someone. It would be very risky to get safe, sane, anonymous help I would imagine.

I wouldn't know how you'd go fixing a problem like that. And I wager that most of the people with these, er, 'desires' don't know either. Which hides the problem and leaves it underground, lurking, until someone eventually strikes.

Castration for violent rapists and child molesters.


Not good enough. Your violent rapists often aren't interested in using their penis to hurt someone. They use objects, or even weapons against genitals.

The best way is the throw-away-the-key approach for people who are that dangerous and unreformable.

Anything can be argued, but the research suggests otherwise in this case.


Really? Because when I was a kid, and I had acquired a stack of Playboy and Penthouse magazines, pretty soon, I was wanting actual women. As sexual attraction is sexual attraction, I have to imagine the same would be for pedophiles.

You can't stop it unless children are made completely and totally invisible from everyone until the age of 18.

Paedophiles are said to love children's television or fashion magazines if they can't get off using illegal pornography.

Are you suggesting that you would not have developed a sexual attraction to women absent access to pornography? Cause I kinda don't think that's how human sexuality works...

No, no. My point was, photographs of women weren't enough for me after a time, and I had wanted the real thing. I'm saying it would only be a matter of time till pedophiles want more than just a computerized image of a child.

You still seem to be saying that pornography was some sort of gateway drug to wanting actual sex for you, which, again, isn't how things work. Are you trying to argue that absent child pornography, pedophiles won't desire to have sex with children? Cause, as I've said since the beginning, research says otherwise.

I'm saying pedophiles won't stay satisfied with just kiddie porn.

Are you an expert on pedophiles? Here is a study that suggests that kiddie porn might actually keep them from offending:

http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/20 ... 111326.htm

Quote:
The findings support the theory that potential sexual offenders use child pornography as a substitute for sex crimes against children. While the authors do not approve of the use of real children in the production or distribution of child pornography, they say that artificially produced materials might serve a purpose.


So, you support a policy that makes children more likely to be molested why again?

No, I'm not an expert on pedophiles.
As for the materials themselves; are they still produced through the victimization of children?
And rather than creating pornographic materials to sate pedophiles, wouldn't society - and the pedophiles themselves - be better served by providing them with therapy in order to thwart their sexual interest in children?

Definately.

About 300 joules with a defibrillator across their scrotums whenever they see an image of a child or hear a child's voice ought to do it.

Maybe a chip in their brain that zaps the nerves in the penis when they get aroused.
A new type of electro-shock therapy.

So, again, if computer generated child porn can help keep pedophiles from attacking real children, what is your problem with it?

As to society helping pedophiles, would you want to advertise your status as such in a society full of Fnords?

Thank you, by the way, Fnord, for making the world less safe for children, it's a real service you're doing there.

Pedophiles shouldn't have to advertise their predilections publicly in order to get therapy if they seek it.
