Should male castration be legal in the USA, would the divorce rate decline?

Question

in some areas, when you steal, you cut thier hand off. If they kick, cut off thier foot. Now, if a woman could legally castrate a man for infideltity, would that cause the divorce rate to drop. Think about it, if 64% of marriages split due to infideltiy and 46% of them are because the men cheated on thier wives. If there were stiffer punishments for this behavior, wouldn't the divorce rates improve?

I ignore racists comments. So save your typing for someone else.

Answer 1

IT SHOULD NOT ONLY BE LEGAL - IT SHOULD BE MANDATORY !!

Answer 2

I read an answer once that even the second and third marriages' divorces are counted in the stats, so actual divorce rate for only first marriage might be a lot lower, since second and third marriages have a high probability of ending in a divorce and these people are usually serial monogamists. Okay. Now another problem is that people expect sex culture and marriages to co-exist in America. Cannot Happen. People who are married don't mind sleeping with others, plus sex is freely available. Also, they are not told that sex is a part of relationship and love, and casual sex is wrong. A society with no sex culture and marriage culture can be egilatarian. A society with sex culture can also be egilatarean. But marriage and free sex cannot exist. Two opposite ends, do not meet, and when they do, cause destruction.

Answer 3

Let me ask this: why is the divorce rate declining important? And why should punishing men be a solution for this? This is part of what is wrong with divorce today; gender bias that judges empirically when relationships are almost always different and each tells a different story.

It takes two to cheat. It is just too easy to blame one person in the relationship when this occurs. Sure, sometimes it is just one person who bears the responsibility. Empirically, though, you cannot blame "men" in general just as you cannot blame "women" in general. For every one relationship that ends because a partner cheats without cause, several more exist where both partners bear some measure of responsibility. Needs are not met. Partners do not communicate. Or they even quit on the relationship using passive-aggressive tactics. Offering castration as a solution to infidelity serves no one. Would not society be better served by giving people coping and relationship skills to deal with their problems, instead of punishing them for it? Don't we want better adjusted men and women in the world? People that can own their results, and learn from their mistakes?

We do not need punishment. We need empowerment, responsibility, and accountability from people. We need people to stop judging the behavior of others and creating dioramas of what a "perfect" relationship should look like. And we need people to understand exactly what partnership means, how to identify and choose a partner, and how to negotiate a lifetime together. Life skill education is so lacking in this country; especially where relationships are concerned. This is where our focus should be, instead of attempting to victimize one gender over a problem that is shared by both.

Answer 4

No I don't necessarily agree with castrating anybody for cheating I personally don't think it would solve any relationship problems.When someone cheats it is more on a emotional level then it it is on a physical one. It would stop the man from using one part of his anatomy to cheat that is all. I know I wont get the best answer for this one. You probably just want someone so say Yes lets start legislation right now but the simple truth is it wouldn't fix anything really it would just give the woman another malicious outlet for their pain of betrayal other than just like keying the guys car and burning his cloths.

Answer 5

I have actually proposed castration for males a few times in here. I know the men clench their knees together but it is a good idea.

If a man uses his privates as a weapon to rape or harm, then disarm him completely. All of it. Remove the testosterone that makes him angry and the tool that he used to take out his anger with.

But as for infidelity, I am sorry, but that is just not right in my books. Personally, since I don't have the jealousy gene, I would look towards marriage in other forms, forms not yet even considered in America or in most of the world. I am a believer in conglomerate marriages, not polyamory. A conglomerate marriage consists of more than one couple, usually 2, maybe with another woman ... but they marry and the bond is as binding as traditional marriage is supposed to be.

This way there is some variety and no need to rove from home because the rover would have 3 not 1 person to deal with if he/se strays.

So castration only for deviants who harm women and children with their "weapon of choice".

Answer 6

I think castration is brutal... I was married to a man for 18 years and he was cheating within the first year. Some men just cheat. Castration wouldn't do anyone any good because if you wanted to forgive him then guess what? Women are just as capable of cheating as well. I wonder if tattooing cheater on the back of the hand would work? Then everyone would know what they did...

I just read lilmissmonkeys answer and I am 100% for castration on child molsters. Cut his damn fingers off too. Yep,,, lets get it started!!! Where to I sign up???

Answer 7

I wish! But what would they do to girls? Sadly, cheating is becoming another fact of life in this country. A lot of French people see it as natural or no big deal. People are losing all sense of right and wrong! even considering religious ideals, I would perform the castration and still divorce the piece of crap. Then other women would know exactly what they were getting(or not getting lol)

Answer 8

I believe the cheating partner should lose there so if the woman gets caught cheating on there man they should lose there ovaries . If man gets caught cheating on her he should become a eunuch why the woman should invite all her girlfriend over to watch and make him run through the house butt naked why any of her girlfriends come to the house. So they can see he has been fixed and can not cheat on you . I believe a man or woman should be spread and fix if there cheating on another if they have kids together . So the kids don't have to pay the price of where is there another parent . And other saying there no longer here because they are a cheater . We got divorce. I believe you make kids you should raise them together as 2 parents .

Answer 9

Sorry girl..sounds like you've been hurt before. I wouldn't want my husband cheating on me, but I've been married 3 times and wanted no harm to come to the other 2. They gave up something good for what they thought was better. I really think you need to be praying about what you're thinking and leave it alone. That's extreme. I believe men & women who hurt others, such as rape, molestation, etc. should fall under castration, because that's nothing but the devil.

Answer 10

I think that would be too harsh. I think if it was a law that the person(who a husband or wife is cheating with), along with the cheating partner, have to pay monetary compensation(half of their possessions) to the faithful partner for involving themselves in an affair, the divorce rate would go down.

Answer 11

Time will heal all wounds. Remember hate will get you only bitterness and when you're bitter, you find yourself, by yourself. Oh and darling you can't tell people how to respond to your questions. You took a risk of putting the question up here and now you want to tell people that is not saying what you want to read What to save. Just like you have freedom to ask this question that is so full of hate, they or we have the right to respond to you in the way we want to as long as the community guidelines are followed. Go breath, talk to God and learn how to forgive.
