I’m sure the government will use the ability to destroy people’s bodies responsibly and ethically…

Cool in theory but I worry about how they’ll execute it and how this may disproportionately affect minorities

There’s a lot of people that think queer folk are pdfiles; this will not bode well

This is already the case in a few US states. And I have to say, I think it’s staunchly unconstitutional per the 8th Amendment’s stipulation of ‘cruel and unusual punishment’. The second that someone is found innocent after they’ve already been castrated, I hope the government sees how much of an abject failure this is. Not much more or less than the death penalty.

Any form of punishment that can cause lasting harm is cruel and unusual in my opinion. If even one innocent person is wrongly convicted that is an unjust system. And the right wing seems eager to witch hunt LGBT people and call them groomers for the mere act of existing and teaching acceptance. They'd love to burn trans folks at the stake if they could get away with it.

sure we should be doing better to care for people already in this world. that has nothing to do with the fact that this law will allow innocent people to be horrifically violated

I think that it’s a fitting punishment for the crime. But I not only think that it will not deter predators, but I think the potential ramifications for innocent people getting accused is too much of a risk to consider. If they’re going to use this, they better be damn sure. I’d also like to add that castration does not affect sex drive, so this quite literally only serves as a method of torture. And once they get out, they will not have a decreased desire to reoffend.

In addition, corporal punishment does not deter crime, if the were the case there would be some kind of correlation between it's use and crime. Crime has fallen over the past few decades despite the trending away from execution.

But also in the US a lot of trans people are accused of pedophilia, so if we think about who’s actually going to be affected…
