WORD HISTORY
The word eunuch does not derive, as one might think, from the operation that produced a eunuch but rather from one of his functions.

Eunuch goes back to the Greek word eunoukhos, “a castrated person employed to take charge of the women of a harem and act as chamberlain.

” The Greek word is derived from eunē, “bed,” and ekhein, “to keep.”

A eunuch, of course, was ideally suited to guard the bedchamber of women.

Eunuchs were employed in the Middle East and China as guards and servants in harems or other women’s quarters and as chamberlains to kings.

The eunuchs’ confidential position frequently enabled them to exercise an important influence over their royal masters.

Many of the patriarchs of Constantinople during Byzantine times were eunuchs.

The custom of employing eunuchs as servants in wealthy or royal households is very ancient; it reached its epitome at the court of Constantinople under the Byzantine emperors, from whom the Ottoman sultans adopted it.

Eunuchs often rose to high position, the Byzantine general Narses being the most celebrated example.

In the Muslim world the use of eunuchs was far less common than is generally believed;

However, the sale of young males to be eunuchs was formerly an important element in African trade.

The castrating operation, which retards the development of normal male characteristics, including the deepening of the voice, was performed with varying thoroughness and with varying success.

From Constantinople spread the custom of using eunuchs in choirs.

These guys are bunch of hypocrites and mentally impotent morons.
