In a perfect system, execution. But I don't trust my government (or any other government I know of) with the death penalty, so an acceptable alternative would be life in prison with no possibility of parole, mandatory 14 hours of work per day with all wages going directly to organizations which help provide health care and counseling for rape survivors.

That is not a punishment fit for civilisation.

Go to Africa or the Persian gulf.

That is not civilised either.

If anything a just punishment would push for the repentance and eventual release of a criminal.

I wouldn't normally expect something like this from you.

If the punishment is death there will be no incentive for the rapist to not kill his/her victim and hide the body as they will have nothing to lose.

Rape should be punished with prison but a serial rapist deserves to be executed or at least castrated.

So to prevent rape, you need to rape rapists? Or do you think that law should only punish, not try to prevent crime?
