Dudes with No Balls Always Win

Written by Bryce

…Right?  That’s what I’d assume anyway.  I mean, athletes have enough to worry about without the risk of those pesky balls flip floppin’ all over the place.  I’ve always felt like my life’s been a success because I’m ball-free.

Apparently going nutless is the going trend in Pakistan for top athletes too.  A cricket match took place in the Pakistani city of Sukkur yesterday between a team of regular young men from a local club and a team of eunuchs.  (If you don’t already know, a eunuch is a dude that’s been castrated.)  This is great news for the eunuch community as a whole, because the largely Islamic population in Pakistan is hardly loving and accepting of its eunuchs.

Eunuchs are social outcasts in Pakistan, forced to be nutless citizens in an intolerant social climate.  They’re typically left to be beggars, or work as erotic dancers (WTF?!).  .

This historical cricket match was only allowed to take place after a ruling by Pakistan’s chief judge, Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry, giving eunuchs greater rights.  Judge Chaudhry heroically ordered the government to stop discrimination against eunuchs and granted them special medical and public facilities.  Thank goodness, now eunuchs can piss in peace without the fear of the man in the next urinal checking out their nutless sacks.

Sanam Khan, captain of the eunuchs’ team, said to the BBC: “I want to dedicate our victory to Justice Iftikhar Chaudhry. It is only due to him that things are changing for eunuchs in Pakistan.”

The eunuchs’ ball-flopping opponents were from a local cricket club called the Olympians, while the eunuchs’ team was called Sanam XI.

The eunuchs performed an impromptu dance on the pitch after they won and said that they were delighted and felt “very greatly appreciated”.
