Howaminotmyself, you're saying that their choices are either abuse children and go to jail, or castrate themselves? And that we SHOULDN'T feel sorry for them as a result?
I have no sympathy for people who abuse children, but I feel sorry as hell for people who are attracted to children but would never act on it because they know it's wrong. When your only options are always wanting something you have 0 hope of ever attaining, or cutting off your own genitals, it seems like you've been given a pretty crappy lot in life. Especially because many pedophiles are the way they are because they were molested as children.
Is it normal to pity pedophiles?
