As a eunuch, I became more rational.

I'm curious -- what exactly is the response you hope to get by repeating this claim in thread after thread? Are you waiting for someone to stand up and applaud? Are you waiting for someone to shout at you and call you a freak? I'm sorry, but neither is particularly likely here. If you'd like to discuss the differences in your mental life since undergoing this treatment, by all means, do so. For now, you are not adding to the discussion.

The claim is relevant in this thread. I agree, though, that Lojban should elaborate instead of simply repeating. P(troll(Lojban)) >> average(P(troll(X))).
