I think eunuch covers guys who lose the goods at any point.
Can a eunuch also be someone who was born without the goods? or does it only apply to one who's had his goods taken away?
Tell me more good stuff about me.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
American Heritage says it can be either, tommy. Columbia University disagrees.
Want a laugh? Look at the automatically generated ads on the answers.com page for eunuch.

It's an answers.com page and freaking sponsored ads, for crying out loud. Don't be a wuss.

Weird, that.

How am I supposed to sleep now
I think your bosses might be okay with your being unable to sleep at this moment. Hey! Maybe I can use this confusion to keep me awake tonight and tomorrow morning.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
I see ads for In-Demand Degrees, prostate meds, and diet pills.
Only the prostate meds strike me as overly ironic, except I'm pretty sure eunuchs still have prostates.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Castratos are snipped before puberty -- I think eunuch covers guys who lose the goods at any point.
So castrati could be a subset of eunuchs, then? I'm fine with that.
