Classification of a Eunuch

[Losethem (imported)]

Too many, though, think of the word "eunuch" as pejorative. We just had an article rejected by an academic journal over use of the term. We used data gathered from the "Eunuch Archive" and two of the three reviewers recomm

ended rejection because of use of the word.

Are they so into wanting to make a name for themselves they can't understand the terms we use for ourselves? Or are they just that bull-headed and feel they can come up with something they can coin and make a name for themselves with?

They thinks it's a perjorative, we think they're misguided and wrong. Perhaps before rejecting a term, they should spend time looking at the forums where the people seeking this help are, and see what they call themselves.

I also wonder how they feel -- seems like they would feel squishy and soft if hollowed out like that. I guess there are some men out there that would prefer to see something in there ballsac even though they are castrated with no testosterone.

Also, in thinking about this, I don't think this can even work the way Dr.s say it will. Even on chemical castration the testicles become small and shriveled. If they are hollowed out and there is no testosterone, eventually they will shrink up into raisins anyway. Wonder if the patients are told that they will not remain the same size and will eventually become much smaller.

What you are saying makes sense. It seems like artifical testicle implants would be much more effective and simple to do ? But maybe to some men being able to keep even hollow and shrinking shells of their real balls gives them some satisfaction or comfort. They might see it as their best choice of what is offered to them.

By the time their hollowed out shells collapse or shrink they might be better adjusted to being castrated. And the slow change in their balls and scrotum might be easier for them to accept than healthy, full balls that are here and full one hour, and an empty sack an hour later. Especially since most testicles removed

are fully operating and healthy balls with no pain or problems. Removing perfectly healthy balls to stop their testosterone production from fueling and encouraging cancer would be much tougher for men to agree to than removing painful, damaged, or non working balls.

Working balls make the man.

Very true from a biological function standpoint.

But even castrated men have experienced all of their past puberty and all of the masculinization of a life influenced by testosterone and fully functioning sex organs, his male brain, and past inputs that keep him a man after castration. Plus his genetics do not change from castration.

Well it's a matter of what parts you keep between your legs, i think...

For example: a boy who has his sex drive chemically calmed is simply... calm.

A boy who has lost some important part of his boy-parts (testicles, precisely) is castrated.

But perhaps i see it too materially.

Hey Jesus

Thanks for all the information. I've been a eunuch for a long time and I've never even heard of a small part of what you've told us about. There has been about a year since you last posted on this subject, have you uncovered any more info? Also, I would be interested in doing some digging of my own, can you point me to the right areas?

Again thanks

I'm a eunuch and use Unix

I don't think so. You just see it straight forward and simple. I also kind of agree with you.

As A chemically castrated or calm boy as you said can go back and stop taking the chemicals. Where as a castrated boy, can't go back. Ever.

In China they used to take dicks too. Always wondered why

Because Inside the home of emperor, there is only one man with full set of organ, he have many wives and workers. This can sure that all child give birth by the wives are his offspring. One of The emperor male offspring can inherit his position.

If there are another man with ball, this cannot be guaranteed. Also, Chinese is very serious to virginity, even the man without ball but with dick, he can penetrate emperor’s wife, which is not allowed in their sense.

Matthew 19:12 (NIV) "For there are eunuchs who were born that way, and there are eunuchs who have been made eunuchs by others—and there are those who choose to live like eunuchs for the sake of the kingdom of heaven. The one who can accept this should accept it.”

In a red-letter Bible, this would be in red because these are Jesus' words.

This is a passage that would have been written in ancient Greek which contained far fewer words than does modern English. The word Eunuch had several meanings. Therefore, this passage is open to some interpretation by the reader.
