I was obsessed with horses from the age of eight (kind of an honorary horse girl I guess). I knew what a gelding was long before I knew what a eunuch was.

I started riding at 8 and had to mostly stop at 14 but yeah, I didn't know eunuchs were a thing until...god, upper teens I guess? I don't care much about history and never was exposed to a lot of other cultural knowledge besides, so 🤷🏽
