→Intactness is the new norm

The percentage of American boys being [[circumcised]] has been slowly but progressively declining for a long time, while the number of boys with [[intact]] [[foreskin]] has correspondingly increased.<ref name="jacobson2021" /> The percentage of [[intact]] newborn boys now exceeds has exceeded the percentage of [[circumcised]] newborn boyssince 2022.<ref name="yang2025" />
