Eunoukhos

 (plur. eunoukhoi) is a Hellenic Polytheist religiogender for castrated males and AMAB transgender individuals, and the Greek root word for the English term "eunuch." Historically, a eunoukhos must be in some form castrated, sterile, or celibate. However, modern people identifying as eunoukhoi may simply be any male or masculine person without a penis (such as intersex and transmasculine individuals), or people with a penis who intend to remove it.

The term eunuch or eunoukhos can be derogatory, and should not refer to anyone without consent.

History
Across various cultures, eunuchs have existed for virtually all of history.

Etymology
Eunokhos most likely originates from the role of eunoukhoi's roles of guarding and working in women's bedchambers, from eunē (bed) and echein (to have, have charge of).
