German dad castrates daughter's boyfriend with bread knife
German dad Helmut Seifert, who disapproved of his teenage daughter's 57-year-old boyfriend, went to the man's home and castrated him with a bread knife, escaping with his testicles.


After learning that his 17-year-old daughter was having a relationship with the older man, Seifert went to the town of Bielefeld to speak to the police.

Having learned that they were powerless to help him, the enraged father decided to take matters into his own hands.

Police said: 'The man recruited two work colleagues at his factory and then went to the house of the victim.

‘The man was forced to remove his trousers and, fully conscious, he was castrated. The severed testicles were taken away by the perpetrator.'

Despite losing a lot of blood the man managed to call police and is now making a recovery - but the castration is irreversible.

Seifert, who pleaded guilty and is expected to be tried for attempted murder next year, has so far refused to say who his accomplices were.

He said: ‘I received a phone call anonymously that my daughter was involved with a guy 40 years older than her. You said you couldn't stop him, so I did.

‘I saw it as my duty as a father.’

Proof positive that Americans are not the only ones screwed up over sex.

Frankly if a 17 year old girl rubbed herself on any man who was not over the top gay she would be getting tapped like a keg! It was evident that either the police didn't have any evidence or she was within her rights of consent to do what she wanted to do even if the guy was 40 years older than her.

Heck, I was involved with a girl 16 years younger than me and her family talked a lot of BS sight unseen about me and none of it was substantiated. Her brother threatened me too but I made it clear that if I thought for a second I had any reason to fear him he could explain himself to me at gunpoint along with his family. People can do some sick shitt when they want to and the only thing people either respect or fear is something they have reason to fear. That girl could have been very happy with the way things were.

People all have their own world view of how things should be and frankly we are programmed for females to seek out older males becasue we survived long enough to reach maturity where in nature a lot of younger animals just get killed off anyways to disease and predation. To increase chances of survival a female will seek out a "Survivable" male in the hopes the offspring will likewise survive.

All I can say is the 57 year old dude must have been doing something right until dad stepped in.

I too would take an extreme approach to this situation. If a 57 year old man is dating someone 17, what does that say about the individual? What could a 17 year old and 57 year old have in common? Age shouldn't matter in a relationship, but there is a limit before it becomes creepy and questionable.

amen, although not this extreme.

Not all teens are the same, but I imagine THIS dad knew HIS TEEN well enough to decide that someone who had lived over half a century had no business with her except to use her sexually. Many children have no father figures or no resources and turn to men as a father figure. Many cultures allow for that and we should respect the law, BUT, I do understand this fathers outrage over the situation which is without his consent.

you must be one of those guys who replied a resounding YES, to one of those surveys about raping a woman if he could get away with it...you really have got some warped mysoginistic justifications regarding sexual abuse and pedophilia

Ummmm he said 16 year younger the himself not a 16 year old.............

but he did imply admiration for the fifty seven year old 'doing something right' by being with a teenager,,,

The cops were pretty smart. They pegged him with "attempted murder" which most jurors, including me, would have to let him off. He had no intention of murder, he just wanted to castrate the guy.

Way to go Germans!

smh, castration wasnt right either, but(unless this is that rare EXTREmELY mature teen) , a fifty something man has no business with a seventeen year old unless something is SERIOUSLY wrong with him

I wonder if the dad gets to hang the testicles on the wall as a trophy?

No I did not. All I said was people are screwed up about sex way too much! I have never forced myself on a woman ever either although there were a couple of Bone Cutters in my past I sort of wonder why I didn't just let them have it like they deserved...

And just so the people who feel I am a creepy pedophile now can know what I mean by a Bone Cutter well here is my definition...

A Bone Cutter is a woman that gets naked, gets a man on top of her, and right when he is about to nail her she says no and starts screaming to get off of her and acts like you just tried to force himself on her.

Women that pull that BS get NO sympathy from me if they get raped. I do not play Mentor's music or wear a GG Allin T shirt either! Frankly if a woman does not want to get "Date" raped keep your cloths on and your legs shut! And most of all STAY OUT OF ANY BED WITH HIM IF YOU HAVE NO INTENT OF HAVING SEX! That is just bad form!

I am sick of men getting all the blame when mixed signals are being tossed around. I agree that men who actively victimize women deserve to be harshly punished (and I am an advocate of public beatings for rapists but some of you PC losers out there would disagree with me over this!) BUT BUT BUT do not dangle meat in front of a hungry dog and not expect him to snap at it!

Now this comes from female fans of Al Dulche (Look him up so you can get a little taste of real Misogyny!) if you don't want to get raped, learn to fight and carry a knife!

Sex is a fuqued up joke played on us all! Also, IT MUST HAVE BEEN CONSENSUAL BECAUSE SHE WASN'T COMPLAINING! So many people want to throw THAT word around too!

I have heard people try to rationalize that animals cannot consent to sex and many of these supposed experts have not had pets or worked on ranches. Mares in heat can be very demanding. So can human teenagers.

Seakolony, thank you for seeing that I was trying to make a statement, not brag about lurking High schools, That GF was 19 when I met her and I told her my real age! I don't lie to kick it in this hizzie!

To the rest of you...



You think too little of me!


Get a life!

Passin' some love to ya', Andy!!

when NO is not an option, yes is worthless....doesnt matter when, where or how deep you are in..when someone says stop, or i dont want to and you think you have the right to go on because your balls are screaming for release...in my book, its rape.

You tell em pmarco41

This father's failure at raising a daughter with ethics and common sense does not give him the right to castrate another human being no matter how old he is.

Perhaps dad was poking his daughter himself and got jealous that she found herself a sugar daddy.
With what little we know this scenario could be as accurate as another.

Anyone know the legal age in Germany? Because if 17 is a legal adult I see nothing wrong with what happened. If she was ok with having sex with a 57 year old guy that's her business. If some 18 year old US girl wants to sleep with a 60 yar old who are we to say she can't? Also if you are a 60 year old guy and some 18 year old is offering you free sex I doubt you are going to say no. Well if you are single and all that.

the castration wasnt legal and shouldnt have been, the relationship was legal and probably (from a parents point of view) shouldnt have been


the age of consent does nothing for a parent who knows the MATURITY level of their child, and in western cultures, someone still in high school has NOTHING In common with someone who has lived over fifty years

all he can do is support her and sleep with her,, and she already ahs parents to support her,,,,,,

The age of sexual consent in Germany is 14 the drinking age is 16 guess the girl was of consentual age to engage in sexual conduct.....

consenting adults
