An Abderite saw a eunuch talking with a woman and asked him if she was his wife. When he was told that eunuchs cant have wives, the Abderite asked: So, is she your daughter?

I actually did not get this joke at first, partly cuz Im buzzed and I was listening to it rather than reading it. But it is a pretty good one if you can transport yourself back to that time. (And bonus for me is one of my favorite book series A Song of Ice and Fire features eunuchs in its medieval-esque world, so this made me think of the books.)
