Castration (also known as gonadectomy) is any action, surgical, chemical, or otherwise, by which an individual loses use of the testicles. Surgical castration is bilateral orchiectomy (excision of both testes), and chemical castration uses pharmaceutical drugs to deactivate the testes.
Fair enough, but it has however been commonly referred to as such for long time.
shareP.S. How's the film x? Was it any good? If I liked, and I did mind you, Ki Duk's other works, should I appreciate this one, although its arguably his most disturbing one, its almost like "A Serbian Film" of Kim Ki Duk, right?
