Royalty in the ancient world often castrated young men so they could serve their king without distraction or in their Hareem. those who made themselves Eunichs rather may be like Origen or have chosen a lifestyle (because it does not concern them) of being non sexual.

And some homosexuals think this is them, LOL, If it were they wouldn't be able to commit homosexual acts.

Matthew 19:12 For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it.

Your meaning is flawed. Christ would never condone homosexuality. It was Christ that said that there are eunuchs for the kingdom of God's sake. Christ was not speaking of homosexuals. He does not condone sin. That just is plain abohorrent, and makes Christ a sinner.

A Eunuch is one who refrains from sex. He doesn't marry. He remains single.

The dictionary says:
"1 : a castrated man placed in charge of a harem or employed as a chamberlain in a palace"

It is likely that kings, emperors, and those in high places in the past did castrate them for that purpose. Castration does not lead to homosexuality nor is an excuse for it. Christ was not speaking of that.

Being a eunuch for the kingdom of God's sake was simply remaining pure, like the Apostle Paul did.
