Castration in the genital modification and mutilation context is the removal of the testicles. Occasionally the term is also used to refer to penis removal, but that is less common. Castration has been performed in many cultures throughout history, but is now rare. It should not be confused with chemical castration.
Castration", in China, meant the severing of the penis in addition to the testicles, after which male offenders were sentenced to work in the palace as eunuchs. The punishment was called gōngxíng (宫刑), which meant "palace punishment", since castrated men would be enslaved to work in the harem of the palace.
Emasculation was performed in China on men to create palace eunuchs for the imperial court. [19] The practice dates back to the Shang dynasty (1600–1046 BC) [20] and continued up until 1924, [21] when the eunuch system was abolished by the last emperor of China, Puyi. [22] The last living palace eunuch, Sun Yaoting, died in 1996. [23]
