"Back in the day" it was young boys or teenagers (male) who acted women's parts, because women were not allowed on stage. Because of their different diet most boys did not start puberty until their mid-teens and their voices would not break until the age of around 16 or 17. If a boy was a very good actor his balls would sometimes be cut off to stop him physically maturing and to keep his high voice so he could still be used for women's parts. Once a boy actor's voice broke he was virtually worthless and many ended up destitute.
