    The hygiene thing is a myth. Yeah it can get dirty if you ignore cleaning it but no more so than any other body part. It’s basically entirely a post-hoc rationalization from people who had it done to them when they were babies and weren’t told it was because way back when some Puritan dipshits thought it might keep teenage boys from “being sinful” in their youth.
