Execution would treat pedophilia quite effectively, and permanently.

No more then prostitution or porn does away with rape.

The fantasy must become more and more extreme to be fulfilling. Eventually even the most extreme fantasy does not work.

Fantasy only feeds the drive to indulge in the reality.

And when they finally indulge it looks like a shark feeding frenzy.

One the other hand an armed society does greatly reduce rape. Something about knowing that you have a chance of dying tends to suddenly cause you to control those "uncontrollable urges"

Knowing you can not indulge without your being possibly hurt and killed will result in a tendency to squash the fantasy rather then indulge.

The more you squash the more control you gain, the more control you gain the more you can channel the desire into something else.

It is your brain, how you program it is up to you.

I doubt it. Being content with what you have has never struck me as a caracteristic of pederasts/pedopiles. Or any sexual perversions for that matter.

How long before even talk of treatment is criminalized? Once upon a time, homosexuality was considered a mental disorder and now it is lauded and protected. Pedophilia will be there too within 10 years at the rate we are going.

Note the red type at the end.

Rom 1:25 Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

Rom 1:26 For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

Rom 1:27 And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.

Rom 1:28 And even as they did not like to retain God in [their] knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;

Rom 1:29 Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

Rom 1:30 Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,

Rom 1:31 Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:

Rom 1:32 Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.

Women will NEVER be “obsolete!”

Perhaps homosexuals will become obsolete?

I hear that certain types of shoes work wonders in stopping pedophilia.

It is possible that virtual child pornography content or other simulations such as child sex dolls or robots might be a safer outlet for at least some individuals who are sexually attracted to children

Here's the only "outlet" that's safe:
