[men who do not have relations with women] literally “eunuchs”; since the passage could not possibly mean malformed babies, it instead is an ancient way of describing homosexual men.

Full quote: “But he said to them, 'Not all men can receive this saying, but those to whom it is given. For there are eunuchs who were born that way from their mother’s womb, and there are eunuchs who were made eunuchs by men; and there are eunuchs who made themselves eunuchs for the Kingdom of Heaven’s sake. He who is able to receive it, let him receive it.'” Matthew 19:11-12
