People are using psychiatry to begin with, so they can either know what the current understanding is, or offer an alternative.

Agreed. And some people are offering potential alternatives, or at least calling for a reduction in stigma in an attempt to increase the likelihood of further research being done. And others are calling for mass killings or castration (which seems to assume only men are pedophiles as well). Cause, ya know, moderation is a thing here...

The end result of research seems to be "how can we can greatly decrease pedophilia." But this is superfluous as we already know how to greatly decrease pedophilia: the castration, imprisonment and/or death of pedophiles. The only question here is how to gain a high degree of compliance with these mechanisms, which are unattractive to the individual pedophile. That is what we should be researching.

Should we cut someone's dick off if they have a hypnosis fetish? I mean, they have exactly as much ability to control or modify it as a pedophile does...

we'd cut someone's liver out if it was cancerous and harmful to their ability to live, why not do the same with their sexuality?

I mean, that wasn't a gotcha. If someone has an inability to control themselves or have healthy sexual relationships, it's preferable to have them live under induced asexuality if at all possible.

By grownup talk do you mean handwringing over appeals to nature, or crying about the stigma unfairly attached to being a broken freak who wants to rape children? I'm not sure where the maturity lies in refusal to do mean things that actually solve problems.

So, say we were to find a causative link between being the victim of child sexual abuse and becoming a perpetrator, would you be up for executing both parties at the same time? Hypothetically, of course. I'm just checking for moral consistency here.

You seem to be making a comparison in that a pedophile may never molest children and a victim of abuse may never be an abuser. But the question isn't if every pedophile will molest children. Some may never have the opportunity. However, aside from some small number actively monitored in captivity, every pedophile has the constant opportunity to kill themselves. It is the easiest thing in the world. As long as this remains a free and easy option there is no sufficient excuse for their continued existence.

I don't think your plan would hold up in court.

I also don't think you're gonna get pedophiles to self identify considering the lovely scheme you've got planned for them. In fact they'd probably be even less reported than they are now.

Also it doesn't do anything to really prevent more pedophiles in the future, maybe, because it's not known whethe rit's an inborn trait or an acquired one, so you'd probably have to keep the system going in perpetuity.

Also, frankly, most kids don't end up getting diddled and most pedophiles don't actually diddle, so the rights of the kids to not get diddled by someone who probably isn't going to diddle them anyway are outweighed by the rights of the people who probably aren't going to diddle them to stay alive and keep their bodies intact.

This entire thread has just become you masturbating over the idea of getting to kill/torture pedophiles, I don't really know how you can accuse anyone else of being on the internet too long. Your "liberal" solution to pedophilia requires rewriting the entire Constitution and throwing out things like "due process" and "protection from cruel and unusual punishment" for a problem that most other nations manage to work on without even having a death penalty.

It actually doesn't require rewriting anything. There's a long history -centuries old- of removing basic rights from people with dangerous medical conditions without their consent or having committed a crime. If "needing to break the law" is a requirement to you, there's any number of ways to make any pedophile in violation of some law or another. You however sympathize with pedophiles for whatever reason, and that is the genesis of your opposition, and not what is plausible.

Without getting into which is "worse" as that is of course a purely subjective assessment, one is actually a vastly more common and socially accepted sentiment, so much so in fact that the only place where it does not find near-complete agreement is amongst sniveling pedophile apologists on the internet.

I don't know if your plan strictly meets the definition of genocide but it's definitely genocide adjacent and I'm impressed by the projection of inhumanity and bloodlust you convey in the guise of saving children. Kids are nice and all and I hope none gets raped but I don't think it's worth the amount of violation and suffering you think is ok.

So it's OK to want to kill people, so long as you don't have the balls to admit that it involves the whole icky violence thing where you beat someone to an undifferentiated pulp of tissue and blood with a claw hammer until they die from blood loss and shock.

On the other hand, your posts in this thread have indicated that you are, in your own mind, as likely to commit the crime of rape as a pedophile is to molest a child. So as a consequence, there's actually plenty of justification to kill you horrifically.
