Editing Pedophilia (section)

== Punishment ==
* In some nations such as Russia and certain US states, pedophiles are chemically castrated; some even choose to undergo surgical castration to remove their sexual drive and with it the urge to harm children. When in prison, pedophiles are often looked down upon the most of all inmates and thought as even lower than murderers. They are often beaten and even shanked to death behind prison walls. In places like India, pedophiles have also been [[Lynching|lynched]], including death by [[necklacing]].
* Pedophilia can have a great psychological punishment. Many pedophiles have considered suicide from the guilt of being a pedophile alone, as well as some considering suicide for how they know it's considered a major sin by society.
