There are memes like “when you have to prove that you’re jewish” or crass jokes about people standing out due to their lack of foreskin, but i remember hearing that a huge swathes of American men are circumcised - it’s like 49%. Jesus.

If literally half of every men are circumcised, why is it even a remarkable topic to Americans? How did it become such a meme?

    If you’ve never experienced having a circumcized penis (as someone old enough to be consciously aware of having a penis) how could you know it doesn’t work just fine?

    The only people who can comparatively answer are people of an age of sexual maturity who have fully experienced all uses of a penis both with and without a foreskin.
