How did the ancient eunuch urinate?
Castrated eunuchs can't control urine as before, just like water pipes with out-of-control faucets, the water flow is no longer in line with the rules, so there is often an embarrassing situation of urinary incontinence.

And they certainly can't squat or stand like normal people when they go to the toilet. When they are in a hurry, they squat over the toilet, put a towel in one hand and put it in the castrated place, and use the principle of similar drainage to excrete urine. It is precisely because of this inconvenience that they often carry a drainage towel with them, which also acts as a temporary "diaper" to prevent urine from splashing around when incontinence occurs, which is unsightly.
