Eunuchs claimed that our family originated in the Ming Dynasty. As we all know, eunuchs prevailed in the Ming Dynasty, especially in the Wei Zhongxian era, and eunuchs were very powerful. The word "our home" was first born in some temples in the Ming Dynasty, and was named by monks or Taoist priests. Both monks and Taoist priests gave people a sense of lofty and poverty. Only then did the eunuchs think of themselves. Although they are human beings, they are not monks, but they are no different from monks in feelings and that respect, so they call themselves themselves.
And the monks in the temple are all martial arts people, very masculine. Although these eunuchs have been castrated, they are still men, so it is very effective to use the word our family to emphasize their gender.
Although all the eunuchs we saw in modern costume dramas, especially in films directed by Stephen Chow, in ancient times, those eunuchs still paid great attention to their own gender, and they were also very pleased with their relationship with the emperor. The word "our family" was very popular in the Ming Dynasty. In the Qing dynasty, you will see some eunuchs calling themselves slaves or little eunuchs, mainly because of different dynasties.
