Нещо не си дал линк за цитата, дали става въпрос за балканските еничари или за нещо друго.

Аз пък мога да ти дам това- белите евнуси са били слуги на еничарите, които са били избрани за държавната администрация (защото само по-тъпите ставали войници). Така девширмето е всъщност управлявало османците.
Много турци сега спорят, че този кръвен данък не било толкова лошо нещо - те са се издигали според способностите и забогатявали, в сравнение с простите селяни, които биха останали, ако не са ги набрали. Което карало някои християни от Цариградски фамилии да се натискат да вкарат синовете си в това училище. Да не говорим, че по-късно са могли и да се женят официално, значи не са били кръцвани.

Ottoman Empire
Chief Eunuch of Ottoman Sultan Abdul Hamid II at the Imperial Palace, 1912.In the Middle Eastern empires, eunuchs were typically slaves imported from outside the Islamic domains. A fair proportion of male slaves were imported as eunuchs.[25]

The Ottoman court harem—within the Topkapı Palace (1465–1853) and later the Dolmabahçe Palace (1853–1909) in Istanbul—was under the administration of the eunuchs. These were of two categories: Black Eunuchs and White Eunuchs. Black Eunuchs were Africans who served the concubines and officials in the Harem together with chamber maidens of low rank. The White Eunuchs were Europeans from the Balkans. They served the recruits at the Palace School and were from 1582 prohibited from entering the Harem.
The Palace school was part of the House of Osman's system, designated to educate the Ottoman Empire's governing elite. It consisted of two distinct branches. The Madrasa (Ottoman Turkish: Medrese) for the Muslims, which educated the scholars and the state officials in accordance with Islamic tradition. Then there was the Enderun (Ottoman Turkish: Enderûn), a free boarding school for the Christians, which annually recruited 3,000 students. These were Christian young males between 8 and 20 years old, who came from one in forty families among the communities settled in Rumelia, a process named Devshirmeh.
