Well, one point is to stop people like you looking at it. The other is to stop vigilantism and mindless mob violence. I think you need to aquaint yourself with how easy it is to be put on that register. Feminists are broadening the definitions all the time. They won't be satisfied until every man is on it. So, don't help them.

In the UK the salient legislation is the Sex Offenders Act 1997 (SOA), which introduced registration of range of sex offenders in the United Kingdom, and the Sexual Offences Act 2003.
There is is no formal public right of access to the national register, although there is selective disclosure of information - in what has been characterised as "a controlled fashion" to a range of officials (eg housing and social services agencies), professionals (eg doctors and teachers) and members of the public. That is consistent with case law supporting 'controlled disclosure' of police information to immediate neighbours, direct victims or the cohabitee of an offender where a specific risk exists.

so that professionals are aware if someone on the sor moves into the neighbourhood. Also to make sure the knowledge that someone is on the register is not misinterpreted or misused. unfortuately the same register is used for someone who might have been cught out kerb crawling a 30 year old as someone who sex muders a child.
