Maybe I'll have to be less delicate. 1) Castration stops the source of testosterone as well as sperm. It effectively ends sexual desire, as well as the chance to father children. That doesn't address the main motivation for rape. 2) If a male is physically incapable of normal sexual functions, due to a physical lack, he can still perform acts that qualify as rape. Someone who uses a foreign object does not automatically qualify for a lesser sentence. Dan M. _______________________________________________ http://www.mccmedia.com/mailman/listinfo/brin-l
