But my point was that it isn't black and white, there are side effects. It caused a great man to commit succide. Let me repeat what you said.


If I recall corretly, he had also been stripped of his security clearance which meant he was no longer involved in an area of work he had put a huge amount of time and effort into - I imagine that was quite the hammer blow to him. The appalling way the British government treated homosexuals at that time can be blamed, I'm not sure one can identify individual elements to blame.

Although I'm not a psychologist - 21/04/2010 11:29:04 PM 438 Views
I think it's more complicated than just that - 21/04/2010 11:46:14 PM 427 Views
Sounds familiar... - 21/04/2010 11:52:43 PM 439 Views
even if someone did physically castrate a pedophile - 22/04/2010 01:07:15 AM 427 Views
This post proves the truth of what I said above. - 22/04/2010 01:58:06 PM 500 Views
I have a very hard time being unbiased on this subject. - 22/04/2010 01:11:31 AM 494 Views
it would probably only help those who are truly pedophiles. - 22/04/2010 01:30:53 AM 416 Views

You misunderstood my logic. - 22/04/2010 05:11:30 PM 482 Views
It is just theory to you. - 28/04/2010 04:55:51 PM 488 Views
