The castration for a rapist, is only coming from my daughter's recent forced rough sex incident that started out reluctant & ended with vaginal tearing (from a guy that pick her up and manipulated her into a perceived love, at the wake of her boyfriend, who committed suicide). Then dumped her when she thought she was pregnant!
I wanted much worse, I wanted him dead, It's a blessing that I'm a quad, because I would be in jail right now!
And yes, she sees a shrink and therapist regularly.

First off, Brewmaniac, let me say I am sorry that you and your daughter have gone through this. I know it affects your heart very deeply. Three women very close to me have also been the victims of sexual crime.
I'm curious though, and I don't intend to turn this into a point of debate, it's just something I think about now and then.
Do you believe that your personal experience has had a tremendous impact on your opinion vis a vis 'eye for an eye' justice or any other sort of corporal punishment for sexual or violent crimes? In other words, what do you suppose your opinion on this thread would have been if your daughter had not been victimized? Feel free to not answer, if you don't feel like it. But, at the same time, I don't think there is a wrong answer, so it's cool.
