Can castration cure paedophiles?

Article Abstract:

There are growing calls in the UK for convicted paedophiles to be physically castrated, as is already happening in the US. However, many doctors feel that mutilation of this kind is never acceptable, whatever the motives, and there is also growing evidence that physical castration will not necessarily put an end to deviant sexual behaviour in any case. Chemical castration, a reversible treatment where the male sexual urge is reduced using female hormones, is regarded as a more acceptable approach.

The worst threat is your own mind

Article Abstract:

It is becoming increasingly common for people to seek medical and psychological treatment for jealousy. Jealousy is a normal, healthy emotion in most people, but in some can become obsessive, triggering anger and depression. It is a very powerful emotion, and can be the driving force behind violence, murder and suicide. Treatments include hypnosis, anti-depressants, psychoanalysis and couple counselling.
