Intactness is a noun that means

  1. the condition of being intact,
  2. the state of being unimpaired, and
  3. completeness.[1]

Among English-speaking nations, Intactness is the norm in Australia, Canada, New Zealand, and the United Kingdom;[2] and is transitioning to the norm in the United States.[3] Foreskinned men usually enjoy their intactness and would not have it any other way.

Intactness is the norm in all European nations, all Latin American nations, China, India, and Mongolia.[2]

Unfortunately, intactness has been shamed in the United States and American males have been discouraged from keeping their erogenous, protective, and healthy foreskin,[4] but increasing levels of intactness are now being reported among newborn infant boys.[3] Intactness became the NORM among newborn boys in the United States of America in 2022.[5]

Intactness among Christians

The Christian Fathers met at the Council at Jerusalem in about 49 A.D. to discuss the issue of ritual circumcision as practiced by the Jewish people. It was decided that circumcision is not a requirement for Christians,[6] however a few Abyssinian and Coptic Christians continue to observe the Jewish ritual.

Intactness is the NORM among Christians worldwide.
