Trouble is coming

I have one recommendation to this sites moderators. Now that the EA is in the public's eye, the Fiction Archive needs to be purged of ALL stories marked [minor]. I stay away from the Fiction section because many times you can't see the [minor] tag until you select the story. I don't want even my pseudonym linked to those stories because they might be considered child porn by a motivated prosecutor, and none of us needs that trouble.

I noticed that the news didn't call it a "eunuch social network" or "castration information resource." They called it a "Eunuch fetish site," and now it is linked in the popular press to an illegal cutter. We don't need it to have the label "pedophilic" attached as well. Mark my words, increased scrutiny is coming.

If the article is correct, they met on a "Dark Web" site called Eunuch.com. This is not a Dark Web site and it is eunuch.org not eunuch.com. Granted, they might have it wrong and meant to refer to this site, but we are granted First Amendment rights to post stories, fiction, about most any subject, even about minors having sex and getting their parts cut off. Child porn involves pictures of real children in sexually compromised situations.

Certainly, some people don't wish to read such stories and shouldn't, but you aren't going to be irreversibly tainted if you stumble across one, and you aren't going to be prosecuted, as long as you live in the United States. Such stories, however,

might be considered child porn

in other countries. The site and some of the members have received some heat from some of those countries, Germany is one I think.

Is this the reason no one has an actual profile pic for their avatar on here?

Actually, most people would prefer to maintain a degree of anonymity.

Thx for the heads up. Swapping mine now for one that won't be as recognizable.

I doubt trouble is coming at all. It said Eunuch fetish site, not the Eunuch Archive. The URL they posted will take people to a site offering that domain name for sale. There are several sites out there, and I feel fairly confident in it not being the archive where the exchange of information took place. The staff here is very vigilant in killing posts seeking or offering cutters. They also actively moderate the personals section for the same thing.

Also, the archive has weathered this and been through it before, in a much more restrictive environment, back in 2006. The folks who own the Archive have it covered. I think you should place more worry on the fact the law enforcement folks in Highlands County, Florida essentially victim shamed the guy who got castrated. Specifically in the 2nd and last paragraphs. Re-read the article you linked and you'll see what I mean. They have treated this as a big 'ole joke.

[Paolo]

Yes, they have, and it's shameful.

True, a crime was committed, by the letter of the law.

However, the victim's privacy should have been respected as well.

This is why so much work has been done through the EA to get the gender dysphoria of Male-to-Eunuch onto the books as a REAL issue, and not just some fetish.

Non-binary is more and more common now. OK, if you are NB in the head, then why can't you be NB between the legs, if you like?

Then again, the first day of MtF research and surgery, those trans-Folks were viewed as freaks, too. And it's still a journey for them.

One can only imagine what a journey the whole MtE odyssey will be.

Oh man......

After chasing the non binary surgery for more than six years after my Orchiectomy, there was some evidence that it was becoming more acceptable as I only needed one letter instead of two. This could put a real monkey wrench in the works for others seeking what I have finally, I hope, accomplished as my surgery is scheduled about six weeks from now.

So theoretically, I should be done before the controversy gets out of hand. I wish you who follow best of luck on achieving your desires.

Damn, I proud to part of our forum. All the work that has been put in by the "staff". Will never be changed by a news article. Too late roger, turn up in NZ, may well 'recognise' you, lol

LOL! Maybe I should just use a pic of my junk as my avatar?! I guess that might actually get me banned.

Hey Roger, my avatar is exactly a photo of myself during two distinct times in my history. Just saying

#TransformationThursday? But you make a great point. I don't think anyone cares about my avatar, and I'll use my face or my junk if it won't get me booted (I've had enough requests). "Anything goes" is a big part of the fun of being on this site, that and the hard time LT has always liked giving me. ; )

[cutnbulls2ox (imported)]

Hey, now I m sorry I said what I did in my other comment. You changed your very handsome photo. I meant that comment as a big compliment. ,!, I didn t want you to change your great photo.

[dicklesstanuki (imported)]

Ah yes. The ongoing adventures of Florida Man. Honestly I doubt it will even be close to the most wild story to come out of that state this week.

[cutnbulls2ox (imported)]

Florida does seem to have more than its share of odd stories.

But its a great state with endless good points to it. And in most cases, the people are very friendly along the coasts. Some of the interior rednecks definitely don t like outsiders buying up the whole state and forcing them to move over and over.

Some people claim that the states at the end of the farthest highways end up with people traveling in and just staying when they get to the end of the road, like California, Alaska, Florida, and Maine.

This is a really great way to describe it! It can be so easy to be caught up in simple reputations.

Ah, yes, the "Florida Man" news genre. I think Gelding, one of our most famous, lives in South Florida.

[cutnbulls2ox (imported)]

Yes, Gelding really brought voluntary castration out of the unknown and onto the national scene with magazine articles and his willingness to go public and show himself proudly. He did a lot of good for publicizing voluntary eunuchs.

I saw him from a distance, poolside at the, now gone, Suncoast gay resort hotel in St. Petersburg, Florida. I think it was a Drummer Boy national convention full of leather men. Looked like he was deep in discussions with some of the hottest looking butch leather men there. I m guessing planning some nut harvesting among the volunteers attending. Us young bucks stayed clear of that group, out of fear, and kept our distance. But seriously hot looking top men talking with him !

I think voluntary eunuchs owe Gelding a huge thank you for outing himself to make it acceptable to talk about human voluntary castration.

I wonder if the website in question is a eunuch website hosted in Uk(you know the one im reffering to y'all)

Apparently i tried to post it here and well, this forum has that keyword banned

NB = The one where the infamous trent gates had been nullified

Why the "infamous" Trent Gates? Dude seems kinda hype to me.

[foxytaur (imported)]

Why the "infamous" Trent Gates? Dude seems kinda hype to me.

I figured as much, its just he's been in the spotlight in a lot of media sites about nullos. Still, its worse in tumblr or at least it was.(with the whole non adult implementation the site is doing) Anyways the website in question ends in "maker". (if i post the full name the forum immediately highlights it as inappropriate to post)

Regarding trent gates it kinda baffles me he did a DIY procedure. I mean no ones there to stop someone in that scenario but personally id be scared shitless to perform a heavy mod on myself. Apparently the dude almost bled to death from what was posted on his tumblr. I'm going to assume it was caused by the band coming off from the penis

[Paolo]

The reason that any reference to that site (located with a UK address, and having the words "eunuch" and the shortened form of the verb "to manufacture" in the title) is filtered out by the forum software is because of the "carrying on" that they were doing. Basically, it was a "cutter festival", and publicizing that which is illegal in (probably) every country you can imagine. It's a wonder that everyone affiliated with them isn't in jail already.

When the site first got fired up and running, they were flooding social media sites with content - yes, even video. I was amazed at how long their account on T u m b l r was able to stay running before it got deleted. To put it mildly, I was shocked; and it takes a LOT to shock me.

Practicing medicine without a license, anyone?

I was also concerned, after viewing their posts "here there and yonder", that a connection to EA might be made.

I will remind the forum users here that the policy of the EA is to not seek, find, use, be, or discuss cutters.

It's likely the reason that Trent is described as infamous is this, and I'm sure that LT's radar will light up like a Christmas tree on this comment:

He's a young man (younger then, but of age) that was highly publicized in his modifications, photos and video, namely, the removal of his genitals.

And if I may say so, a rather hot young man...

Basically, the perfect "wanker fuel" for the site in question to draw in hits, members, and probably sales. I don't know that they sold stuff; I didn't check.

This is only my theory; I can't confirm it.

But the publicity of the entire DIY/cutter theme is why we do not allow links to, or much discussion of, said site/group.

I believe that Trent is still a registered member here, and HE is completely welcome here. I wouldn't really use the word 'infamous', as it has such negative connotations, however. Perhaps "celebrity" would be a better word? Much like the dim past, of the mid-to-late 1990's, when folks were discovering the eunuch-mods section of BME, there were the 'celebrities' of the day then.

One can only imagine the flood of messages and emails as well, for such people.

I would remind everyone as well to show the proper respect for someone who is willing to share such with the world. As we know, once it's put online, it's there forever in some form!

Bravo!

There's another name for those that seek the services of a cutter: "The Dearly Departed".

Fiction is one thing but, real-life requires more common sense. Plus, you are worth it. Find a real doctor that went to medical school and has a license to do surgery.

[Losethem (imported)]

The site which shall not be named, has become a shell of its former self the past few months. I guess he's worked through all the guys in the region who wanted to get something done, or he's simply not pushing them as he once was since he's seemed to finish most of the modifications he wanted for himself.

One of the things to look out for there if you do sign up looking for stuff is, he will charge you about $100 US for what is purported to be an unlimited access to the photos and videos, then pulls a switcher-roo where he demands more money for the castration/penectomy/nullo content in some instances. I remember when people bitched about having to pay $10 every six months on MBM (where we were only wanting to cover server expenses), now they fall all over themselves to pay $100 or more for this guy. *shrugs*

Occasionally something pops up on there, but it's not at the rate it once was. I think I've seen one thing this year so far related to castration as far as video content goes.
