My boyfriend also believes child rapists and molesters should be put do death. What if there was castration? Take off their balls and they won’t hurt another child but unfortunately it’s seen as a cruel and unusual punishment. But it’s better than having them going out and hurting children and if they are asexual, they won’t hurt children. But here is the problem, what if they were innocent? Men have been accused of molesting a child.
So it made me reconsider about it.

I think that castration would be a just punishment for someone who rapes someone else, especially if a child is the victim and his guilt is absolutely certain, but the fact that it would likely be done to some innocent men as well makes me cringe.  It would be extremely unjust to do something like castrating or executing an innocent person.

The whole question is whether this is about punishment,
or something else. I don't believe in punishment, but could
see the argument there. As to deterrence, people have committed
acts of sexual violence, after castration. Indeed, some can even get
an erection, after a physical one (I don't know about chemical).

If it's just for punishment, I don't see the point
If it would stop them re-offending (I dunno much about how it works, but I don't think it would), then I can see an argument for it...

The only way to stop anyone from committing some
future crime is to kill them. Let fire judge those who
would be imperfect! Nukes for all.

i don't believe in punishment either.

castrating doesn't take away their hands. or their minds. a molester is a molester. still dangerous. and rape isn't about sex. they would still be hungry for power over someone helpless.

Yes and no. Like I've said, there are different kinds of rape.
Which is kind of why I don't like them being lumped together. Nothing
to do with 'aggravating circumstances' (though they seldom happen when
rape IS about sex). I don't know if the penalty should be different, as the
effect on the victim may be the same (though I doubt this - but how can one
tell? Every victim is different).

Every rape is different in one way or another. That doesn't change the fact that it's rape though.

I know. I'm not sure they should be treated differently.
I'm just saying that sometimes, what is defined as rape,
IS about sex.
