German father castrates man dating his teenage daughter

Well, that's one way to solve a problem. A forty-seven-year-old man in Germany was apparently incensed to find out that his seventeen-year-old daughter was dating a fifty-seven-year-old man. (Um, quite rightly, I would think. Though the age of consent in Germany is fourteen.) Like any caring father, the man in question called up two buddies, headed over to the man's house, and then cut off his junk with a bread knife. Said the dad in question:
I received a phone call anonymously that my daughter was involved with a guy forty years older than her. You said you couldn't stop him — so I did. I saw it as my duty as a father.
1. I hope you did some more fact checking before you went all Lorena Bobbitt on the man. 2. Since we don't live in a Euripides play, I think you might have overstepped the boundaries of parental duty in your quest to protect your daughter. I understand the motivation, but by the time you're looking through your knife drawer it's gone too far.
The man is being charged with attempted murder, and the victim will survive, despite almost bleeding to death before reaching a phone. His goods, unfortunately, were not able to be reattached.

Bravo!
Seriously, xdl?? Have we gotten so freaked out and judgmental over adult/teen sex that we endorse attempted murder?? The man did not rape this girl, and even if he did, frankly, we should still be horrified by the actions of this father. There's a reason we have legal systems that are designed to protect against this very kind of barbarism from occurring, yet today, more and more it seems people are increasingly cavalier about violent vigilantism and people otherwise taking the law into their own hands and "abusing the abuser." is there no virtue in responding like mature, reasoned adults? Is a wrong righted by doing something even more fucked up?
if a 50 yr old guy has sex with a girl of 17, and the father finds out, well.... You get what you get.
No, hey, you don't. The father has a responsibility to act in a reasonable manner. He has a right to his feelings, but nothing gives a person the right to go all "Lord of the Flies" on anyone who he feels wronged or harmed by. Am I the only one frightened by how many people endorse and even encourage crazy shit like this?
They are both of legal age. The father should be castrated with a bread knife as punishment
His penis was not cut off, by the way
I'm thinking a tin can strapped to my junk is gonna go a long way towards ensuring that this will never happen to me.
I agree with JH.
While I agree that it is a little extreme and creepy that a 57 year old was "dating" a 17 year old. Cutting off the man's genitals is way too extreme of an action.
I agree with attempted murder charges.
That poor girl's gonna have a hell of a time getting another boyfriend
Man, I'm jealous of that guy's friends. Where do you make friends who if you call them up and say "my daughter is sleeping with a 50 some year old, lets go castrate him" they just go right along with that no problems?
JCVD, I hear ya, doubt mu buddies would come along for the ride. Big question is, unless that guy was filthy rich, what the fuck was the girl doing with ol' saggy balls? There is nothing attractive about people over 50, it's a fact of life.
I'm with xdl on this one. I'd bet lots of $$ that the 57-y.o.'s gone after younger ones, whether he's been caught or not. The dad gets points for doing what the law can't. No balls = no more urges.
男的悲剧
@I}, how fucking ignorant can you be? No balls do NOT mean no urges. It's been proven that men who have been castrated continue to have sexual desires. Decreased desires, due to low testosterone production, but it doesn't go away. Castrated men are capable of erection and orgasm. In fact, there are sex offenders who do not get physically aroused when they commit their offenses. This is because sexual abuse is about power, not necessarily about sexual gratification; and seriously, lay off the superhero movies and Dexter or whatever it is that you're watching. You're obviously a person who can't separate fantasy from reality if these are really your values.
