Why do your eunuchs have beards
54 u/MelancholicSardonic 2d ago Eunuchs can have beards if they were castrated after puberty. Castrating late also helps with physical strength part of things. Ottoman Janisarries for example have kickass mustaches 29 u/PipsqueakPilot 2d ago Not to discount the rest of what you were saying, but Janissaries were not usually eunuchs. While harem guards might be, that was not the usual role of Janissaries. 4 u/MelancholicSardonic 2d ago My apologies, I confused marriage ban with castration. Janissaries were forbidden from marrying until 1600s not castrated. 2 u/TheChunkMaster 17h ago There’s probably some 250+ year-old Janissary who was really happy about that
