Although all 100 percent of males are born with a [[foreskin]], The [[World Health Organization]] estimated that about 70 percent of living males are [[intact]] and only about 30 percent are [[circumcised]]. The great majority of the [[circumcised]] men are found in the Muslim nations, stretching from Nigeria in the west to Indonesia in the east. A majority of males in the [[United States]] and [[Israel]] are [[circumcised]]. The [[foreskinned]] males are in the true majority and constitute the real norm. | |||
