 | The trend worldwide and especially in Australia is to leave boys intact. Social media comments point to girls preference to having a partner intact and frowning on circumcised boys as being incomplete.
In a changeroom at a local football match recently, I saw that 98% of boys were uncut and the poor 2 guys that were cut were bullied (with some fairly rude and racist comments made). "Proud to be uncut" is the warcry of the younger generation nowadays! |

On that point, the "trend worldwide" is a far more nuanced subject than you have perhaps considered. Africa, for starters, strikingly disproves the notion that circumcisions are on the decline; the WHO in fact shows that the % of circumcised men worldwide has increased every decade on record (though the rate of growth swings up and down). Islam is the fastest growing of the major religions, worldwide, and not coincidentally circumcisions have traced this group both geographically and demographically, though that's not to say religion totally dictates circumcision rates (majority-Christian Latin nations typically have lower rates than majority-Christian European nations, notably).
Moreover, surveys have almost universally and consistently shown that sexual and aesthetic preference has been for circumcised men, even if to varying degrees. The contention that 'intact' status is favored - and that circumcised men are 'incomplete' - strikes me as purely idiosyncratic invective, even if not intended.
The foreskin is no badge of honor, nor is it a stigma, in any meaningfully objective way, regardless of how you slice it.
....(er, no pun intended)
[edit - but goddamit, that was so brilliant and organic I'm just gonna leave it as-is.....er, no pun intended again!! ]
