Normalfag is a common term denoting anyone with a normal social and sex life and a job, regardless of sexual orientation.
The word is not recorded in the OED, so it must be a quite recent coinage and not common in the sense of occurring in general use; it may, however, be common in the sense of 'crude and tasteless'.

I didn't know normalfags actually said that, I thought it was just a myth perpetuated on wizardchan and /r9k/, but they actually do say
"jus b urself
". No wonder they hate you guys.
You are spending waaay too much time on the imageboards.
Myth or not - it works. Sometimes.
PS. And yes, depression tends to make you not fun to be around (that was a jab at "just be yourself"). I thank ex-GF for kicking that into me (ok, that was mutual).
PPS. On second thought... I don't know if I should feel offended or not

never herd of it, nor do I care.
As for being yourself, spelled out for those of us who know how to read, meaning don't try so hard.
You know I speak two languages, English and bad English. what I have never liked is text talk, it might be fine for the phone but if your going to post, spell it out.

Wizardchan and (formerly) /r9k/, places filled with people who prove that "jus bein urself" doesn't always work. The Chads and normalfags who say that usually aren't afflicted with crippling mental and/or personality disorders, didn't have traumatizing childhoods or aren't horribly ugly and can't comprehend how it's like to deal with such things, so their advice often comes off as shallow and condescending.

It's cool that you are setting out to research the history OneBallBoi.
I did not expect so many replies on this post, but the minority are at all related to the subject at hand.
So the Middle East would still value them, do you think?
I just started thinking, and the real life example of the eunuch in society is that of the Hijra in India. It's all self-worth and what you make of it, like someone else said here because the Hijra are given a poor reputation only because a few of their rank are known for criminal behavior and that has become the basis on which many people, in India and globally, judge the Hijra.
Not only that, but I think that the Hijra are confined to the 'Foot' servants of the caste system.

Thanks or your reply.. I am looking to find out what Kings used Eunuch to take care of their Queens while they were at wars. And just the general of the position of Eunuch back in the early years before the death of Christ and after the death of Christ. Jesus has already given me some starter material that he had. This might be several winters of researching the subject but it is something I want to study and learn about.

Do you think that Eunuchs could be highly valued for their rarity nowadays? Like, if someone wanted a sex slave, an Eunuch would be very valuable
What kind of sick fantasy is this? Sex slave? This is illegal and immoral nonsense. Human trafficking is a crime. Eunuchs aren't rare anyway - there are several hundred thousand "eunuchs" in the US who have been castrated due to prostate cancer issues. Get real.
