eunuchtranny is just the modern word for eunuch. for thousands of years we were called eunuchs. and eunuchs were hated just as much as trannies are today. St Augustine of Hippo called eunuchs sexual perverts who rejected manhood. Philo of Alexandria charged us sodomites and having the behavior of women. only in modernity has this language transition occurred. this replacement of the word eunuch has indeed been so powerful even theologians of the ancient Christian churches suffer amnesia when confronted with the new language of "trans". most critically however is the separation you as a trans person are from the history of eunuchs and their struggles into the most remote past of human civilization. "trans" then is a false term that bedazzles and confuses both those who identify as trans and the broader population of people. we need to have serious discussion about what eunuch means in the modern world and if the language of trans truly represents us.

>>42135832yes and much of the hatred of eunuchs in the ancient world was because of their acceptance as women and their refusal to be "men".
