I have always found it very interesting how castrati were "created" and used. You can hear a castrati singing here Today, anyone curious about the castrati’s unique voices can listen to a recording made in 1902 by the very last of the breed, Alessandro Moreschi (1858-1922). http://thesmartset.com/files/audio/AMoreschi.mp3

I learnt about this in one of my classes. I think it was a pity (for the castrati, I mean......no boners?)

if castrato were cut between ages 8-11 then they would grow up flabby and effeminate and with tiny cocks and no boners.
If they were cut between ages 11-14 they would still develop cocks and manly features, and could get hard ons and fuck women, which they did, because they knew they would not get anyone pregnant. they cut the vessles feeding blood to the testicles and they woul wither away until they were useles raisin nuts.
