I, Lee Pei Ning have nothing to post currently but since everybody was asking me to update my blog, i'll shall try to write something...
Erm... let me think...
Ah, i know what attracts your attention... i shall talk about... * drum roll * CASTRATION!!! Do you know what is castration?
In ancient times, castration often involved the total removal of all the. This male genitalia involved great danger of death due to bleeding or infection and, in some states, such as the Byzantine Empire, was seen as the same as a death sentence. Removal of only the testicles had much less risk.
In China, male castration of a person who entered the caste of eunuchs during imperial times involved the removal of the whole genitalia, that is, the removal of the testes, penis, and scrotum. The removed organs were returned to the eunuch to be interred with him when he died so that, upon rebirth, he could become a whole man again. The penis, testicles and scrotum were euphemistically termed bao (寶) in Mandarin Chinese, which literally means 'precious treasure'. These were preserved in alcohol and kept in a pottery jar by the eunuch.
When Zheng He was captured by the Ming Army as a child in 1381 he was castrated!!! Cool eh?
So what do you think? Ew? Interesting? Lol, so now you know something new!!! Isn't that great? Hahah...
So i completed my updating mission... great!!
