Methinks that castration - of any sort - would fail to be a foolproof measure against child molestation.

I heard of a case where a man became a rapist, targeting and assaulting countless women. Thing was he was impotent - unable to "get it up" from complications arising from diabetes - and it was noted that he became a rapist primarily because of his inability to achieve sexual satisfaction.

So castration, in some cases, could serve to make things worse.

I thought this "chemical castration" was about reducing the sexual DRIVE?
