Those rents are insane. How do low income people live? Do they practice hot bunking?
California minimum wage is $9. So at 60 hours per week you probably don't make enough to rent a studio apartment?

Yeah California is having a crazy housing problem right now.

The LA area isn't as bad as San Francisco, like we haven't reached "a thousand bucks to rent a bunk bed"

I've seen people renting single rooms in the less great parts of my city for like 1,000.

A few years ago a buddy found a lovely falling apart 2 bedroom house for about 1,200 a month though. So maybe this wacky family will get lucky.

You're making a pretty gross simplification of the issue with eunuchs though. The fact that they were treated culturally completely differently from both men and women do make them a de facto third gender in those cultures. Current fashions about what consitutes gender don't really come into it. People are defined by the culture they live in.
Dude, for most of Chinese history eunichs were men robbed of what made them men. It was a punishment for criminals and prisoners of war. It was viewed as a source of shame up until the 15th century when the Emperor carved out a civil service niche for them because he knew they wouldn't have legacy ambitions. Even then the only reason the whole civil service thing became as big as it did was famines and farmers not being able to feed their kids, so hacking off their balls and sending them to be the state's problem.

Do you really wanna be the one defending "victims of mutilation given a job in society," as a totally good model for a third/other genders?

I didn't think it was a scarf, but it kinda blends in with the jacket and I didn't notice till the scarf joke came up and started looking closely and then caught it. It's like where's waldo only with human filth!
