To stop abortion, the answer isn't to ban sex, it's introducing things to prevent pregnancy. Nobody *wants* to have an abortion.
To stop pedophilia, the answer isn't to ban experiencing those urges, it's introducing things to prevent offenses. Nobody *wants* to be a pedophile.

what does preventing offenses look like?
limit adult/child interaction?
radically lower ages of consent?
make gpt 4.5-powered sexbots modeled on kids?
i mean, we could just keep spending money, curtail online freedom, & continue making things difficult for adult SWers too...

Therapy and help is a great start. As it stands, if you're a pedo, there's an extremely limited amount of assistance you can get without ruining your life.

I wonder how well anti-androgens would work for male pedophiles in terms of preventing offences. They kill sex drive pretty effectively, but I also know they can be pretty rough on a person if they aren’t transfeminine.

This relies on equating the negative impact of "getting pregnant" and "assaulting children", which are obviously not in the same universe.

Yes, contraceptives should reduce demand for abortion. But noisy (Ev.) anti abortion protesters I have heard clearly thought that *all* patients were unmarried and having sex "anyway." For the protesters, contraceptives would just let them sin w/o consequences.
