Castration

cats (Bloomberg, 1996; Howe 1997; Looney et al., 2008 and Reichler, 2009). Castration is a common procedure in male cats recommended to reduce the population of unwanted cats and reduce aggressive behavior. Post pubertal castration is performed within the age of six to nine months (Yates et al., 2013). Prepuberal castration also called juvenile neutering in cats less than five months of age (Neven, 2013). Juvenile castration in cats aged between six to sixteen weeks was reported as acceptable age by

Should Chemical Castration be performed on Sex Offenders?      Okay suppose your five-year-old daughter was brutally attacked and raped by a known sex offender, would you rather the offender to be sentenced to a few years in prison, only to get out and destroy another innocent victim’s life or have them chemically castrated? Chemical castration is the process of injecting male sex offenders’ female hormones to eliminate their sex drive. Honestly until someone is in the position;

punishment would be either surgical or chemical castration (Beech & Grubin, 2010). Castration has two ways that it can be done: surgical and chemical. Surgical castration involves the removal of the testes and chemical castration uses hormones to drastically reduce the testosterone levels in

The issue of castration has many layers in terms of its use punitively. The biggest area of debate is the rate of success and if sex offender’s problem is physical or psychological. In addition, is the use of castration constitutional? Some people argue that compulsory castration is a violation of the Fourteenth Amendment and the Eighth Amendment. However, does the unconstitutional nature change when castration is voluntary and the decision is made by the offender? Moreover, does labeling castration

THE USE OF TOPICAL ANESTHESIA FOR PAIN ALLEVIATION DURING SURGICAL CASTRATION OF BEEF CALVES S.J. FABER Summary I. INTRODUCTION Surgical castration is a general cattle husbandry procedure whereby the testicles of the males are removed or altered in order to stop the production of male hormones (NSW DPI, 2004). Castration of male cattle is considered to be an unpleasant but necessary practice for economic, safety and management reasons within production systems (O’Neill & Webb, 2008; NSW DPI,

seconds, someone is sexually assaulted in America and every 8th minute of that, the victim is a child. Mandatory chemical castration in convicted sex offenders is a debate that has long been analyzed and attacked from both sides and each have shown to offer valid points, but the deterrence and recidivism rates have proven that rendering a sexual offender impotent with chemical castration is more effective than prison, can free the offender of unwanted sexual urges, and shows we take this issue seriously

Chemical Castration is supposed to be a way that the government can somehow reduce the rates of rapes and molestation. Not everybody believes in this procedure. I am one of those people who do not believe in this procedure. I don’t think that this could be affective, and won’t benefit our country. A bill was passed recently saying that if a child molester was convicted twice of molesting a child under the age of thirteen years, they would be court ordered to do this procedure. In a recent article

Chemical Castration for Repeat Sex Offenders Child molestation and sexual assault is an ever growing problem in the United States today, but an even bigger problem is that these pedophiles are being released after only serving as little as one quarter of their sentence. In California alone (at the time the bill was first passed), there was an estimated 680 individuals on parole for molestation and other sexual assaults including sodomy by force with a victim under the age of thirteen as well

A Critical Analysis of the Effects of Chemical Castration and Physical Castration on the Recidivism Rates of Sex Offenders Introduction This paper examines the effects of chemical castration and physical castration on the recidivism rates of sex offenders. Using theory integration or the multifactor approach, the findings reveal there are several factors influencing sex offender recidivism. Both chemical castration and physical castration have the potential to reduce the recidivism rates

“For the concept of the monstrous feminine, as constructed within/by a patriarchal and phallocentric ideology, is related intimately to the problem of sexual differences and castration.” (Creed, 1993, p.2) Creed takes an interesting approach to Kristeva theory of abjection and Freud’s theory of castration and applies it to horror film. Taking Kristeva’s theory of the abject and the archaic mother, she constructs monstrous representations of the abject woman. The monstrous womb which is
