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?

...bro that study that you linked is from brian j morris.

The RACP, the most notable medical authority in Australia, has denounced morris who is the author of this meta analyses . morris is an aussie and also a founder of a circumcision organization in Australia https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC7691872/ this meta analyses is a sham by the quack brian.j morris. he was denounced by the australasian college of physicians. https://jme.bmj.com/content/circumcision-bioethical-challenge

Also you can research deeper and you will fimd the brian j morris was friends with a currently convicted pedophile , a pedophile who created a 'sexual gratification group who's members get off to thr thought of circumcising boys and to the thought of being circumcised' Edit: I found it https://circumstitionsnews.blogspot.com/2013/11/london-gilgal-societys-quaintance-faces.html?m=1 Theyre both members of the gilgal society and they both get off to the thought of circumcising young boys, only one of them has been convicted of anything though

    Didn't know that, was literally just the first source I found.

    Wikipedia's article has a section on it, with about 4 difference sources that all seem to conclude the same though. Maybe they're all bug circumcision propaganda, I haven't really looked into that part of it.
