Varys is an interesting character. He claims to "serve the realm" , not being affliated to any house. He served back when the Mad King Aerys was in charge, and now the Lannisters. Would he betray the Lannisters for Daenerys if she arrives? What does "serving the interests of the realm" even mean? He sure is an unpredictable kent.
Also, anyone played the GoT RPG or RTS game ?

When Varys and Littlefinger had that chat in the throne room and asked each other if they wanted to sit on it, when Varys said his lines I practiclly replaced them in my head with "I do not wish to sit on the iron throne. I wish to sit above it, pulling strings of the puppet sitting on the throne".

About Lord Varys, why exactly is he an eunuch? Why are people eunuchs to begin with? Please explain.

It's not revealed on the show yet. See the latest episode, where he says to Tyrion that he will tell him some day.

In S1 Tyrion mentions that castration is one possible punishment for rapers (the other being The Wall). As for Varys, we don't know what happened to him particularly.

Thanks, now I remember. I'd choose the wall, there is more glory in defending the innocent and safeguarding than living without balls..
You agree, don't you?

I dont know what i would do, but both choices seem so shit, i rather just not rape at all(why would anyone even consider it). Plus who really does need to rape in that world anyway, a few coins and u can see boobs all day long

Bwaha true..
I'd choose the Warrior way still, but you're right.

I just watched the last episode... why Tyrion, just why?

Oh shit, the last episode. Manly tears.

It could be just that. When you think about it, the fight between families is little more than a game played by a handful of players. What about the people, what about the wealth of Westeros? If Varys is sincere in his claims, maybe he simply wants to keep the kingdoms running (wasn't he planning on killing Daenerys, and then plotting to open the gates to the Dothraki invasion just to avoid wars and unrest with no regards towards the current rulers?)

If you're castrated you can't piss off the edge of the world like Tyrion did, so it makes more sense to still have your dick.

Wait a second, castration is litterally removing your testicles, not your penis, right?

You do realize you'd first need to rape someone before being given these options. Are you seriously talking about glory after raping somebody?
I'm afraid you're right. I would never be given these options

Castration can be either or both.

but without a penis, how would you piss or even not die of infection? Removal of the sac can be stitched, but the penis has a peehole. how the hell would you survive that without dieing of bleeding or infection? How would that heal.
I am now even more convinced I would pick the wall..

Well, ask yourself how women take a leak, and you would be looking at a pretty similar situation, though much more messy I'd bet
