Paedophiles and Chemical castration.

[Margaret Pilkington]

There was an item on the news today that the government is considering some different ways of dealing with Paedophiles....chemical castration being one of them. How do you feel about this?

sounds good can they give them something to make there hands drop off aswell

[Margaret Pilkington]

Peadophiles will be required to volunteer for this form of treatment, so it won't be forced on all convicted paedophiles...only those who want to change their behaviour.

If it weren't such a serious subject, that would be funny davo ... well, still is.

Only heard a little Margaret this morning, didn't catch the castration bit, just the drugs on offer to reduce their sexual drive, only voluntary though, but good idea, as must be an illness of some sort, musn't it ?

Re. the drug, wonder if an improved type of bromide they gave to our soldiers in their tea whilst away at war ? Wonder if it ever worked ? Sorry if digressing (sortof).

Would be interesting to know though if any old soldiers,, who may be on Accyweb, ever took it, and their experiences.

Didn't they piltymon ? Always understood this was the case, was it a myth then ? what did they give 'em

Sorry Margaret, just realised you quoted 'chemical' castration, your clever metaphoric way of describing drugs for stemming the urges.

It's an urban legend just like they say they give prisoners bromide to keep them quiet. If they gave them bromide then why were there so many war babies? Maybe it was just a bad batch of bromide LoL

[Margaret Pilkington]

My dad used to say the only way that bromide would have worked would have been if they had loaded it into an artillery shell and fired at the soldiers privates (that is private parts).

Apparently there are some of the anti-depressants that have the side effect of reducing the libido. (funny, I don't remember taking any)
I'm not sure I would trust the paedophiles to take oral medication....even if they volunteered to go on the program...but then they are also talking of making paedophiles take compulsory lie detector tests.

Perhaps, but maybe some of 'em spit it out .. typical fellas. ! Perhaps they withdrew the tea drinking before they came home on leave, which would only be fair.

Anyway, not all paedophiles will volunteer for this drug, and they are the ones that will have to be watched, however, if at least 25% agree then a little less danger to our children from these sick people in the future.

We all think of men in these cases, but some women involved at times, does it work on them I wonder ? Do you know the name of the drug Margaret?

[Margaret Pilkington]

Chemical castration.....that is what it is called Katex......I didn't coin the phrase.....only reported it as heard ........I'm glad you think I'm clever,metaphorically speaking.

[Margaret Pilkington]

There are a number of drugs which are supposed to have impotence as side effects......not sure about ones for women though.

[grego]

I think the fact that its voluntary is where it falls down, do paedophiles care about their urges? Some travel to countries so they can be with a child. Maybe the chemical castration should be punishment, think we're too soft in this country.

Your dad is very close to the truth. Dosage is king in this discussion. Some soldiers would drink more than others. If the authorities were to give bromide to soldiers wouldn't they be more accurate with their delivery method? If we consider this carefully we have to come to the conclusion that it's a load of.........

[Margaret Pilkington]

Maybe surgical castration would be a surer way to ensure that they could never follow their urges ever again......but you'd need B*lls to bring in the legislation it requires to do that.

[grego]

The paedophiles would scream about their Human Rights, well what about the rights of the children. Maybe if this was brought in more people with these urges would seek help, also think that the sex offenders register should be made available for all to view.
