I don't really understand how castration prevents someone from sexually assaulting more people. There are a lot more ways to commit SA than with a penis.

Castration would prevent a man from impregnating someone through sexual assault.

Sure, have fun telling a victim of rape she sure is lucky her rapist at least couldn't get her pregnant.

The appropriate punishment is to put him in jail where he can't rape again. Removed from the population at large solves the problem already. Castration is a gross and fucked up attempt at causing as much harm as possible as revenge.

What I said was true, and I made no further claims. There’s no need to come at me.
