Circumcision?????

Can't help, but notice Joey is circumcised. He was born in the 1940s and I don't think mass circumcision happend until the 1950s. He might've went through the surgery though as an adult to make his penis more attractive. In any which way you look at it though, his 'package' was a sight to behold. If only I had a time machine to take me back to 1968 (sigh!).

Gynecologists and obstetricians began pushing for normalized circumcision in the 1930s.

It didn't go from 0% to 100% overnight, and it never reached 100%.

It was like 90% from when he was born until the mid 1980s. Wasn't this guy adopted or abandoned or something? Foster children are medicalized worse than lab rats.
